I never knew this is what swallowing
Hot coals felt like. But then, of course,
If you promise to eat it,
You just have to eat it.
And while it may have been easier
To keep the peat burning,
Someone was hurting and it's
Your job to save them.
And as the hot pain seems to
Simmer down into your lungs you
Start to see everyone leaving.
Either that or you're going blind.
But no one needs to feel sorry because
It was you who invited them all to the party.
