Watch Me Burn

Fun fact: This bluesy number contains all 12 major and minor chords.

You say all you see are diamonds in this cold winter night sky
You make me worry about your judgment, but they say beauty is in the mind’s eye
Do you really think we’re so different, and we can prove them all so wrong?
I will give it a try if you will, for your current is so strong

So long, so, so, so long, so long to all sovereignty
I wasn’t using it anyway, at least not for anything so good

So take these jagged pieces, arrange them in a star
Ignite a supernova to scatter them near and far
And watch me burn, laugh, live and learn
Gather all the ashes and watch them slowly turn, and watch me burn

Don’t you know it all seems so golden, to those who traverse the night sky
And if there’s truly a tomorrow, won’t it surely stop by?
Do you think the moon ever considers us? Or ever asks for a song?
I’m gonna write her one anyway, even if no one sings along

So long, so, so, so long, so long to all dignity
I wasn’t using it anyway, at least not for anything so good
