It Burns from Wicked Light by Legiana Collective

The forest where once we were one
It burns it burns it burns

When I saw your eyes it was too late
A sparkless heart started to shine
Light up, burn down

I could feel the desert sun and the cinnamon taste
Your hands and feet
The roots, the leaves
You move like a tree branch in the wind

But I know what comes it hurts
And it is not yet the worst
The forest where once we were one
It burns, it burns, it burns

When you start to sing something will break
Maybe the thread that keeps my life safe
It all changes, I burn down

You fill my days and nights, my time is yours
Your voice singing songs
Even when it stops
It’s like the air is filled with your own voice

And I know what comes it hurts,
and it is not yet the worst,
The ashes they fly away now
My heart stays still and burns
