Only Ashes

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Piece by piece and bit by bit I'll break this down for you real slow But I can't whisper all of this And I can't seem to let this go [Pre-Chorus] So I'll watch the matches Turn to ashes I'll watch the matches Turn to ashes [Chorus] Well, I can tell as you turn I smell the sulfur so clear And fire's a beautiful sound And the wings that you burn turn to ashes, my dear And ashes just fall to the ground Yeah, we're only ashes [Verse 2] Part by part and inch by inch You'll have your mile when it's through Incinerate what's left of this And torch the part of me that's you [Pre-Chorus] So I'll watch the matches Turn to ashes [Chorus] Well, I can tell as you turn I smell the sulfur so clear And fire's a beautiful sound And the wings that you burn turn to ashes, my dear And ashes just fall to the ground Yeah, we're only ashes [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] Well, I can tell as you turn I smell the sulfur so clear And fire's a beautiful sound And the wings that you burn turn to ashes, my dear And ashes just fall to the ground Yeah, we're only ashes
