take my august

take a match

give it life

hand me ashes with a smile

watch the collapse of a tower

that once stood high



with a frown, walk away

when offered truth

burn a flag that now means nothing to me

help me collect all the pieces that represent...



one month

one day

one year

one life

a life that is equivalant to misery



a fragmented sentence

never made so much sense



take my august

take a match

take my life

watch my ashes

take my august

take a match

light it up

and give it life



so take my august

take a match

take my life

watch my ashes

burn a flag

that now means nothing to me

help me collect all of the pieces

that represent your life
