Wishing on flames in midnight sky
Burning bright but don't know why
Black smoke dances as shadows creep
Inner demons don't let me sleep

Eyes closed tight but see the light
Flickering in the darkest night
Conflicting whispers fill the air
Hear the struggle feel the scare

Wishing on flames watch them rise
Consumed by fire in disguise
Black smoke covers
The moonlit dreams
Caught in the middle of silent screams

Heart beats faster in the heat
Ghost of pain won't retreat
Fighting battles deep within
Searching for where hope begins

Embers flying with my sorrows
Tangled in what tomorrow follows
Each spark a wish to end this fight
Yearning for the dawn's first light

Wishing on flames watch them rise
Consumed by fire in disguise
Black smoke covers
The moonlit dreams
Caught in the middle of silent screams
