When the fire started I knew it was already too late
There was a stillness in the air, like the calm before the storm
As it took I watched the world catch on
The stillness went away, replaced by chaos
Occasionally rain would come to wash out the flames
But they'd return stronger by the dawn of the next day
It spread fast and wide, disrupting life and bringing change
When the fire started I knew it was too late
Because I was the one to light the flame
