What story/poem will you create with these lyrics?

NO, this is not homework.

Please do NOT use in order given (or recombine into a story with nothing added), as that would plagiarize his song.

Please include at least 7 of the following (all are lyrics from Chris Isaaks' "Wicked Game"):

- The world was on fire and no one could save me but you.

- It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.

- I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you.

- And I never dreamed that I knew somebody like you.

- No, I don't want to fall in love.

- This world is only gonna break your heart

- No, I don't want to fall in love with you.

- What a wicked game to play, to make me feel this way.

- What a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you.

- What a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way.

- What a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you and,

- I want to fall in love.

    What a wicked game to play, to make me feel this way

    To pretend like you do, that you love and care

    Sneaking in the night, your deeds are to dark for day

    The way you treat those around is just not fair

    I thought the world was on fire and no one could save me but you

    But the fire that consumed me was not of this world that we live

    It was the flame of hatred that burned in your eyes, which once were beautiful and blue

    No longer is there a light in you, no longer love can you give

    It’s strange what desire will make foolish people do

    Oh fool that I am, and fool that I have been

    I desired a little affection, a little compassion from you

    And once I thought I had it, once I thought you to be my friend

    Dark days are what you have left me, the color of my heart

    What a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way

    You felt, you cared but now you think you’re too smart

    But what you are is cold and heartless I say

    No, I don’t want to fall in love with anyone ever

    For like a viper, love will bite and even kill

    This viper, yes was once a friend forever

    But I have now felt it’s fangs to know they are longer than the thrill

    You want the approval of the world so you coldly leave your loved ones behind

    But this world is only gonna break your heart

    Then you may look back and someday find

    The broken pieces of us who you tore apart

    I never dreamed that I’d meet somebody like you

    Who had such power to tear others down

    You treaded upon me like I was morning dew

    And laughed like a fiend in the wind when I fell to the ground

    How about a poem?

    I have not used most of the words verbatim, and I have added some of my own:

    No, I won't fall in love

    This world can break your heart

    And so take my advice

    And stop before you start

    But I look into your eyes

    And before my dream is through

    The depths of azure skies

    Make me fall in love with you.

    So fickle is the world

    That gives and takes away

    It steals my very soul

    And turns my heart to clay.

    A wicked game to play

    To make me feel this way

    A wicked thing to do

    To let me dream of you.

    My world has turned to fire

    It burns me through and through

    It's strange what deep desire

    Makes foolish people do.

    What a wicked thing to say

    You never felt this way

    What a wicked thing to do

    To make me dream of you.

    So I won't fall in love

    I'll be forever blue.

    No, I won't fall in love

    With somebody like you.
