Album: Because We Care: A Benefit for the Children's Hospital of Orange County

this is
just speculation,
just speculation,
your pain cannot compete
with incineration
incineration
his skin cracks underneath
the radiation
the radiation
he can hardly breathe in
this separation
this separation
is all there is in him:

he's been calling your name,
screaming through a wall of flames
a case of melting away,
the floor has become his grave

deliberation
brought by intimidation
searching the eyes of the sky
no limitation
to my incarceration
grounded wings can't seem to fly

so many near and i'll admit
the embers glowing brightly lit
like fireflies,
they burn forever
the shadows laugh as bright as day
he knows they're aimed his way
he looks up and prays for
gentle weather:

he's been calling your name,
screaming through a wall of flames
a case of melting away,
the floor has become his grave
he's been seeing her face,
staring through a Coffin Case
she's been taken away
here lie her remains
