Her

There's a fire burning in her eyes
A desire of faith, hope, and love
The only thing keeping her alive
The only thing helping her rise above

I've tried to let you go
My heart won't forget
You've corrupted my soul
And burnt me with your regret

What will she say
When the money melts away
When the good looks fade
And wrinkles add with age

I can't stop loving you
I don't understand
I thought you felt it too
Was this part of your plan?

I'm falling for you,
Hard and fast.
I've touched the forbidden fruit,
And I'm not sure how long the taste will last.

Why can't you just choose me over her?

Watch it falling from the sky.
A love that I set on fire but never held on to.
Watch it burn,
Watch it die.

(On the paper wings shredded from my heart.)
