Just putting this here because it's been stuck in my head all week. I've always thought music lyrics were on par with poetry, just with more rockin'.
"Become the Catalyst" by All That Remains (slightly edited by me to remove repeated verses)
For fear my eyes are closed, I'll shut this out no more. Embrace this, And I become the catalyst.
And now it swells in me. Smash all my defenses down. I'll take this. I'll let this fire consume me.
I will not. I will not. I will not fall; I will not fail. I pound the walls, I shake the cage. I will not fall; I will not fail.
Let the fire consume me.
The burning passion, it fills me with desire And drives me, and it drives my cause. I'm filled with reasons, but reasons drive me further. Disdain for disbelief will stay the course.
Oh, let the fire consume me. Let the fire burn. Let the courage flow through me. Let the fire burn.
