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

I saved every letter you wrote me
From the moment I saw you
I (1)________ you were mine
You said you (2)________ mine
I (3)______________ you were mine

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

Don't
Take another step in my direction
I can't be trusted around you
Don't think you can talk your way
Into my arms, into my arms

I'm burning the letters you (5)__________ me
You can stand (6)________ (7)__________ if you want
I don't know who you are
I have so much to learn
I'm re-reading your letters
And (8)________________ them burn (burn)
I'm (9)________________ them burn (burn)

You (10)__________________ the letters she wrote to you
You (11)________ the (12)__________ world
How you brought this girl into our bed
In (13)________________ your name, you have ruined our lives

Heaven forbid someone whisper
"He's (14)________ of some scheme"
Your enemy whispers
So you (15)________ to scream
I (16)________ about whispers
I see how you look at my sister

Don't
I'm not naive
I have seen women around you
Don't think I don't see how they fall for your charms
All (17)________ charms

I'm erasing (18)____________ 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 (19)__________ it all burn

And (20)________ the time comes
Explain to the children
The (21)________ and embarrassment
You put their mother through
When (22)________ you learn
That they are (23)________ legacy?
We are your legacy
If you thought you (24)________ (25)________ (mine, mine, mine)

Don't
