A match is not enough, I need a tub of gasoline.
A match is not enough, I need a tub of gasoline
to shower the old me and watch her burn, her fear becomes ash instead of ember
to shower the old me and watch her burn, her fear become ash instead of ember
a match of her old fear becomes a shower of gasoline, to watch me burn is not enough
and instead of the tub of her ash, I need ember.
I forgot how to step outside and scream beyond my silence
I forgot how to step outside and scream beyond my silence
This power built up inside me needs to unzip my lips and rage
This power built up inside me needs to unzip my lips and rage
My silence built up rage inside me, and how my lips scream beyond needs I forgot
And this? To unzip this power and to step outside.
I’m only one human and they are already building the concentration camps
I’m only one human and they are already building the concentration camps
the ocean of tears building up in my chest are starting to drown me, where is the collective?
the ocean of tears building up in my chest are starting to drown me, where is the collective?
They are already human starting the building of the concentration of the only collective I’m in –
Where tears building the ocean in my chest are up to drown camps.
Only tears and collective rage inside me, my lips scream human power
and ember. beyond her silence, they are already starting the building of concentration camps
watch me burn old fear to ash, step outside, unzip my chest,
and shower the ocean of gasoline to drown this building,
I forgot I am enough. I built up to this. Instead of tubs of tears and silence,
I am this match.
