Lyrics

Ashes (Broken World)

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.

An eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth

Too blind to see the truth

But, if you could you'd realize

This is a long time comin'

Lyin' awake, deep in the night

Countin' the ways to make it right

Don't you know you've done me wrong for such a long time?

Don't build an empire, 'cause I'll just burn it down

If this broken world belongs to anyone

I'll be the king when it's all said and done

If this broken world belongs to anyone

I'll be the king when it's all said and done

And make a throne from the ashes (Oh, oh)

And make a throne from the ashes (Oh, oh)

I tried and tried I fell apart

I was broken from the start

I wish we realized this was a long time comin'

I'll begin to make to right

Never too late to start again

I've given into you for the last time

Don't build an empire, 'cause I'll just burn it down

If this broken world belongs to anyone

I'll be the king when it's all said and done

If this broken world belongs to anyone

I'll be the king when it's all said and done

And make a throne from the ashes

This mother fucker held me down under water

Tried to suffocate me to an early fate

Put me through the ringer and you pulled the fuckin' trigger

Now, I see your body shiver as I'm risin' from the grave

If this broken world belongs to anyone

I'll be the king when it's all said and done

If this broken world belongs to anyone

I'll be the king when it's all said and done (Said and done)

And make a throne from the ashes

And make a throne from the ashes

And make a throne from the ashes
