Let you burn

Rough topic

You called for me,

And begged for rescue,

And I let you burn. 

I couldn't help,

I wanted to,

But I let you burn.

Locked away,

They said you should be,

Did they let you burn.

You trusted me, 

I let you down, family. 

I let you burn.

Someone did this, 

Someone's to blame, 

Someone let you burn.

No one can rescue,

I would have tried, 

But you had to burn. 

I tell myself that, every night, 

So I can live, 

And let you burn.
