Ashes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've waited and given the chance again
I'd do it all the same but either way
I'm always out played up on your down days
I left in the right way to start again
Now watch me rise up and leave
All the ashes you made out of me
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on
Just look at how long I've agreed
Now watch me rise up and leave
All the ashes you made out of me
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on
Just look at how long I've agreed
Out of place like a gem on a coal face
Lost on the right way, it's all the same
'Cause I've had my hopes raised, riding the wrong
Waves
Scared when you felt safe to start again
Now watch me rise up and leave
All the ashes you made out of me
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on
Just look at how long I've agreed
Now watch me rise up and leave
All the ashes you made out of me
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on
You blew me away, away, away, away
Now watch me rise up and leave
All the ashes you made out of me
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on
Just look at how long I've agreed
Now watch me rise up and leave
All the ashes you made out of me
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on
You blew me away, away, away, away
I sink like a stone, I lost my control
I sink like a stone, I lost my control
I sink like a stone, I lost my control
