dry up and burn

we'll let you in our home and our hearts,

we'll keep you alive and bring everyone around.

after that you can stand up for awhile,

but you'll soon come down.

we'll throw you out and let you dry up till we can either burn you or drown you.

you can't choose your death cause you aren't alive,

we shall choose for you.

wait till you turn and rot and when we are tired of seeing you outside

we'll figure out what to do with you.

your life is short lived and you are the star of your time.

anything would want to be the one where everyone sits and laughs,

and eats, and trades, and fights and loves.

you don't judge, you don't hurt,

you just stand their in all your glory displaying your beauty for any who care to witness.

you are beautiful in your life and i believe even lovlier in your death,

or actually in your dying.

you look sad sitting in our backyard and i wish we never had to get rid of you.

but we'll have a new one next year and forget you even where around.

so enjoy your royalty now,

cause it is fleeting.

.so is ours.
