Lantern

I want to be a lantern
I want to brighten up your night
I want to flicker in your eye
I want to be a lantern

I want to see you undress
I want to see between your thighs
I want to see your skin alive
In my steady lantern light

I have a flame inside me
But the glow can not escape
Through the bars of my ribcage
But I can feel it burning

And you can feel it burn
Put your hand against my chest
Spread your fingers out and press
And I'll burn you badly

But if I were a lantern
I could brighten up your night
I could flicker in your eye
I want to be a lantern
