Ashley

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.

Standing now, in the mirror that I built myself

And I can't remember why the decision wasn't mine

But it seems I'm only clingin' to an idea now

Took my heart and sold it out, to a vision that I wrote myself

And I don't wanna be somebody in America just fighting the hysteria

Only wanna die someday

Someday, someday, when I burst into flames

I'll leave you the dust, my love

Hope a bit of it'll be enough to help remember the

Days when we came to this place

I told you I spilled my guts, I left you to clean it up

I'm bursting out of the

Seems like now it's impossible to work this out

I'm so committed to an old ghost town

Is it really that strange if I always want a change?

And if only the time and space between us wasn't lonely

I disintegrate into a thousand pieces

Think I'm makin' a mistake, but if I decide to break

Who will fill the empty space? Oh

And now, if I figure this out

Apart from my beating heart

It's a muscle, but it's still not strong enough to carry the

Weight of the choices I've made

I told you I'd ride this out

It's gettin' harder every day somehow

I'm burstin' out of myself

Too many guys think I'm a concept, or

I complete them, or I'm gonna make them alive

I'm just a fucked up girl who's lookin' for my own piece of mind

Don't assign me yours
