“Let The Flames Begin”
What a shame we all became such fragile, broken things.
A memory remains just a tiny spark.
I give it all my oxygen,
To let the flames begin
To let the flames begin.
We thought we were so strong. And we were, for that moment in time. Little did we know that we’d be reduced to fragile, vulnerable creatures. I can barely remember what we used to be. Great friends. Yet only friends. We were so strong, yet so lacking. But then we discovered love in each other. Whoever said that Love was the greatest power was wrong. And yet, they couldn’t be more correct. Love may be the greatest power to posses, but possessing it only makes you weak. I gave everything I could to keep feeding the fire of our love. And so did you. But now that it is lit, what will become of it? It is undying. It can never burn out. That may seem like a good thing, but it will hurt a lot more when they try to wrench us apart.
Oh, glory.
Oh, glory.
This is how we’ll dance when,
When they try to take us down.
This is what will be oh glory.
We can’t let them tear us apart. Our own deadly dance will prevent that. They’ll never know what hit them. They’ve been trying to find a reason to forbid you to come to the surface. When they find out about us, it will give them the perfect opportunity. But our love is, and always will be.
Somewhere weakness is our strength,
And I’ll die searching for it.
I can’t let myself regret such selfishness.
My pain and all the trouble caused,
No matter how long
I believe that there’s hope
Buried beneath it all and
Hiding beneath it all, and
Growing beneath it all, and…
Maybe someday there will be a place where we can go and not worry about them finding out. We can just be at peace, and our love can be our strength. And just our strength. If there is such a place, then I’ll make it my mission in life to find it. Because you are worth it. You know, I don’t regret how selfish I was all those years ago. Or all the trouble I caused our two worlds. Because, if I hadn’t, we would have never met. And no matter how long it takes for me to find a way, I still see a flicker of hope shining through all of this devastation.
This is how we’ll dance when,
When they try to take us down
This is how we’ll sing it.
This is how we’ll stand when
When they burn our houses down.
This is what will be oh glory.
They will never tear us apart. No matter what they do, no matter how much space they put between us, no matter if they kill us, we will always be a part of each other. They can’t take that away from us. That’s just the way it is.
Reaching as I sink down into light.
Reaching as I sink down into light.
My life was stuck in the time just before sunrise before you came. You could almost see light, but everything was still black. Then you came. I admit, I never thought that the little fairy I happened to kidnap would become the center of my life. My unhealthy obsession. My love. You entered my life, and the sun finally rose.
This is how we’ll dance when,
When they try to take us down
This is how we’ll sing it.
They can never tear us apart. Our love is too precious. Mostly for me. Your life was already full of love and light before I came along. I probably darkened it. But you never deserted me, and our love blossomed.
This is how we’ll stand when,
When they burn our houses down.
They can’t take our love away from us. We will never allow it. They can do whatever they want to us, but they can never do anything to our love.
This is what will be oh glory.
A/N: Yes, that was my failed attempt at romance from Arty’s point of view. Completely OOC, but please review, and listen to the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VF8C689Rbgs
