Ashes

You're the north to my south
My way up and my way out
You were the one place I had to go
I'm so directionless now
But there's a new song I couldn't hear
As you hold on the disappears
It's so hard to care the same
When it all seems in vain
And my heart went up in flames
Flickered red blue and gold
But the ashes that remain
Only need the coolest world
I'm stealing kisses just to make it clear
Wherever I may be a part of me stays here
You're bearing everything I do
I've forgotten how to forget you
Watching you walk by the riverside
Spring in your step, time on your side
And my heart went up in flames
Flickered red blue and gold
But the ashes that remain
Only need the coolest world
Ashes are all, ashes are all
Ashes are all that remain deep
