Stepping out into the dark A fire caught be a spark It happened so fast The evidence I left behind It burned with the pines As it spread through the grass And then to the town below Feel the flames as they grow It'll only get worse I tried to wait out the night When sober eyes hit the light They found me in chains The warden said with a smile They'll be no need for a trial But you'll feel no pain And so with a rope Hang me up with the hope That it won't ever catch fire again
