Fire

There is that which burns
And there is that which consumes
Of both, which are you?

All souls are on fire
Some will burn, some are consumed
Of both, which are you?

The world is on fire
Despite us, both carry on
Of both, which are you?

The tree that spoke truth
The heart that deceives itself
Of both, which are you?

One that cannot die
Another cannot abide
Of both, which are you?

Though all have a choice
I can't choose for my brother
Of both, which are you?
