Ashes Lyrics

Bending bone avoiding arrows

Acting like the day we found you

Holding back as they push forward

Beg and steal but say you borrowed

Why did you care if they

Don’t know why you did what you did

Doesn’t matter in the end

When will you understand

You burned so bright

Despite their reactions

Can’t get around

The sight of your ashes

We stopped counting

long ago

Holding on to their tomorrows

Can’t connect just can’t follow

Played it out but not quite bleeding

Standing, kicking you go screaming

How do you know that we

Don’t care why you did what you did

Doesn’t help when you pretend

When will you understand

You burned so bright

Despite their reactions

Can’t get around

The sight of your ashes

Certified

In modern day fashions

Gave you away

In spite of the acting

We stopped counting

long ago

You burned so bright

Despite their advances

Can’t get around

The sight of your ashes

Certified

In modern day fashions

Sent you away

A chorus of laughter

We stopped counting

don’t you know

We stopped counting

don’t you know

We stopped counting

don’t you know
