MY FLAME BURNS BLUE(BLOOD COUNT)

As the last light glimmers And the evening hours dim Maybe I'm too proud to utter it out loud Even though my flame burns blue As the night's descending Once again I find I'll tarry and pretend My confidential friend Will suddenly appear in view All my might Between velet and dynamite Blow out the doors Let in the light Falling dust in the beam And a small stifled scream Alibis and decoys Were his eyes so turquoise? Covered with a lash They flatter and they flash Even though my flame burns blue If I seem a stranger I feel far from danger We tamper and we toy With passion over joy Even though my flame burns blue Even though the fire that once was desire Doesn't look for trouble or dare to flare Look now And I won't be there I won't I won't be there I won't be there
