First Burn by Shoba Narayan, Arianna Afsar, Julia Harriman, Lexi Lawson, Rachelle Ann Go

I saved every letter you (1)__________ me
From the moment I saw you
I knew you were mine
You said you (2)________ mine
I thought you were mine

Do you know what Angelica said
When I told her (3)________ you'd done?
She said
"You have (4)______________ an Icarus
He has flown too (5)__________ to the sun"

Don't
Take another (6)________ in my direction
I can't be (7)______________ around you
Don't think you can (8)________ your way
Into my arms, into my arms

I'm burning the letters you (9)__________ me
You can (10)__________ over (11)__________ if you want
I don't know who you are
I have so much to learn
I'm re-reading your letters
And watching them burn (burn)
I'm watching them burn (burn)

You published the letters she wrote to you
You told the whole world
How you brought (12)________ girl into our bed
In (13)________________ your name, you have (14)____________ our lives

Heaven forbid someone whisper
"He's part of some scheme"
Your (15)__________ whispers
So you (16)________ to scream
I know about whispers
I see how you (17)________ at my sister

Don't
I'm not naive
I have seen (18)__________ around you
Don't think I don't see how they (19)________ for (20)________ charms
All your charms

I'm erasing myself from the narrative
Let future historians wonder how Eliza reacted
When you broke her heart
You have thrown it all away
Stand back, watch it burn
Just (21)__________ it all burn

And when the (22)________ comes
Explain to the children
The pain and embarrassment
You put (23)__________ mother through
When will you learn
That (24)________ are your legacy?
We are your legacy
If you thought you were mine (mine, mine, mine)

Don't
