BUSHFIRE

Growing all these branches
For all of this to end
The time has come
The season of death
Flames and embers
Ready to end it
If only someone
Could save this tree
It’s like a sight
Everybody wants to see
The smell of death
In the bright sky
I feel like a soldier
Ready to risk their life
God, I’m ready
To take my flight
Rest in peace
I’ll see you on
The other side
