It takes fire to melt iron,
And for cream, the stubborn sun,
It takes but little to melt,
But are you iron-willed?
It takes a spurn, to tame the horse,
It takes order, to subdue the laughs,
It takes authority, to order,
It takes skilled hands to solder.
But you can’t be tamed, your spirit is free,
You can’t take orders, I cannot order thee,
On you, I cannot establish my authority,
You are not metal, to solder.
Will you not melt, even after I tell you,
Even after I show you how sorry I am?
Will you not melt, the burning flame you don’t require,
All you need to do is listen to your heart.
I listen to mine, see, and I’m repentant,
I’ve understood all my mistakes,
And one by one, I fully confess,
All my mistakes, I am ashamed of them.
Please, be kind to me….even though I did a wrong,
I was a monster, but you don’t have to be one,
Please don’t be stubborn, it pricks me,
And I bleed, continually.
If I hurt you, should you hurt me?
But an eye for an eye, makes the world blind.
I did a wrong, should you too?
I was stupid, please don’t be unforgiving.
I beg for mercy, I beg for it!
My life is gone, please, forgive!
Forgive, I saw, my scream is loud,
Blaring, apparent, I’m howling, aloud!
