"My Burning" as written by and Phillip Whitman Elvrum....
Flame upon Flame upon Flame
Reaching out to wrap around
My reaching arm
That's how life got to be among my friends
I wanted her so bad
I waited around in a burning down house
Hoping for phone calls
Totally scalding and scarred
I woke up in a pile of ash
Grave beyond Grave beyond Grave
Stretching out to horizons
On all sides
That's how life got to be among my friends
Dead or alive I buried them all
I wanted her so bad
As revenge for my burning I burned the whole world
And was warm for a little while
Reaching out to wrap around
My reaching arm
That's how life got to be among my friends
I wanted her so bad
I waited around in a burning down house
Hoping for phone calls
Totally scalding and scarred
I woke up in a pile of ash
Grave beyond Grave beyond Grave
Stretching out to horizons
On all sides
That's how life got to be among my friends
Dead or alive I buried them all
I wanted her so bad
As revenge for my burning I burned the whole world
And was warm for a little while

to come back from being messed with, he messed around with everyone, and for a little bit, he was satisfied.
Flame upon flame upon flame
Reaching out to wrap around my reaching arm
That's how life got to be among my friends
I wanted her so bad
I waited 'round in a burning-down house
Hoping for phone calls
Totally scalded and scarred
I woke up in a pile of ash
Grave beyond grave beyond grave
Stretching out to horizons on all sides
That's how life got to be among my friends
Dead or alive I buried them all
I wanted her so bad
As revenge for my burning I burned the whole world
