Ashes

Here I go again, thinking way too much
Left alone standing in the dark
Subtle bites never match the bark
I've been waiting, slowly pacing
Wearing circles til' fortunes come my way
Heated blankets housing all the strays
Here I go again, calling empty names
Cast aside like a child's thoughts and toys
Bearing witness without any voice

Now, walk away without a word
And act like I can't be hurt
I still don't know what to say
To anyone above my pay
Or under my chin look in my eyes
I don't know if I'm long for this life

Sing me a song that I wanna hear
Frozen in Ashes and covered in fear
Folly of man, waste of the youth
Caving in like a burning roof

Long for a pure and simple time
While life flashes before your eyes
Full of regret and wasted nights
Spent alone and lost in flight
To nowhere but a fantasy
Of self-imposed remedies

Sing me a song that I wanna hear
Frozen in Ashes and covered in fear
Folly of man, waste of the youth
Caving in like a burning roof
