Yes, I have been listening to Safe and Sound, how did you realize? Frank/Hazel, Frank POV.


firestorms


fragile, vulnerable, flammable

don't forget to hide the matches when you're with me

don't forget to blow out the candles

don't forget to turn off the stove

but you'll slip up eventually,

leave a flame unattended

forget to smother out the fire

and then, oh no, darling, everything's on fire.

you'll look over at me, sorrysorry

I'm sorry too, sorry I'm so flammable

but I'll reach out to you, paper arms, paper boy

I'll ask you to dance, and you'll say sorrysorryokay

and then we'll dance in the flames, pirouette in the ashes, ashes

we'll fall into the fire and pretend it doesn't hurt,

we'll get married in an inferno, we'll grow old in a blaze

we'll die in a firestorm,

waltzing with the ashes of what we lost

you were beautiful, I was young

I was fragile, volatile, you were strong, unafraid

we were unscarred, but darling, everything is on fire

fire kills, smoke chokes

I'm sorry we weren't stronger.
