Left Behind
This whole place is set ablaze.
Smoke is filling these lungs.
I'm looking for the fire escape.
The sirens ring aloud.
I can't make out a single face in the crowd.
Where are you?
You said you'd never leave me behind.
Where do you hide?
I can't breathe.
These fumes are looking to take the life out of me, but still i push to make
my way out.
Forced to crawl as the flames reach for the skies.
How desperate i am just to find you.
I scream your name as i make my way through this burning building.
Struggling as this structure tries to make its way to the ground.
It's going down! It's going down!
Searching for you, my eyes blinding by this haze.
I'm trying to find my way out of this maze.
Where'd you go?
You said you'd never leave me behind.
I'll make it out of this alive or die trying.
I hear the siren's cries.
Pushing forward trying to make my way through the door.
I don't know how much more i can take.
It's getting harder to breathe with each breath that i take.
Save me.
This is exactly what it seems.
Trying to survive as this fire tries to baptize me.
Get me out! Get me out!
You said you'd never leave me behind.
I scream your name in one last attempt as this fire consumes me.
I'll never forget your smile as much as it haunts me.
