Burn.

Every Night

Inspired by reality and the song “Burn” by the Cure

Don’t look, don’t look, don’t look at me.

Your angry eyes are all I see.

Beneath your flowing hair and dress,

your body hard with angry stress.

Every night I dream,

Every night the dream’s the same. x2

We laugh, we talk, we love, we play,

just like we did back in the day.

Then your mood becomes a storm,

cold and gray and full of harm.

Every night I dream,

Every night I can’t move on. x2

Don’t talk, don’t talk, don’t talk to me.

That’s how you want it to be.

Beneath your silent glare of rage,

other emotions want the stage.

Every night I dream,

Every day I struggle on. x2
