Gone In An Instant

Certain types of fire

Does it burn us into shapes?

Always tends to make everything in the universe

Seem like a tiny sparkle, unexpected and cute

Thankfully, gratefully gone in an instant

And everything crumbles into pieces

In a blooming fractal flood

But no one staring at it can believe it

As it freezes out the sun

An empty dream

A stupid dream

A hopeless dream

And everything continues

Just like everything does

Just like pain

Just like love

Just like love I can't explain the way I feel at all, oh, oh-oh

I wanted, I wanted to show what I meant

But the meaning just slipped through my hands

I wanted to do better than I did

But isn't that just life?

And everything crumbles into pieces

In a blooming fractal flood

But no one staring at it can believe it

As it freezes out the sun

An empty dream

A stupid dream

A hopeless dream

And everything continues

Just like everything does

Just like pain

Just like love
