Ashes

Way before we felt the butterflies
Way back when when we felt alive
And way before we lost our innocence
(Innocence, innocence yeah)
Long before it was you and I

It was dark inside
Then our hearts collided
I felt the spark
You were dynamite
If you get to close
Then I might ignite
I will let you go
But your mine tonight
So

Light me up and watch me burn
After what I did to you, I don't deserve
Nothing but the ashes
Light me up and watch me burn
I loved the way you love me
Now I hate it how you hate me with a passion

You're my sunshine, but you made me blind
And I apologize if you wasted time loving me
And sometimes when I close my eyes
I still see your smile and pretend that you ain't done with me

I wish I knew how bad you'd fuck up
(Fuck me up, fuck me up yeah)
I swear that I woulda left you alone
I was always told I wasn't good enough
You're the only place where I feel at home

I was choking 'til you grabbed that rope
The only one who noticed it around my neck (yeah)
So scared and I don't care who knows
That you're the only reason I can catch my breath (yeah)

I messed it up and I let you down
If you let me go, you'll feel better now
(You'll feel so much better)
I messed it up and I let you down
If you let me go, you'll feel better now
(You'll feel so much better)

So, light me up and watch me burn
After what I did to you, I don't deserve
Nothing but the ashes
Light me up and watch me burn
I loved the way you love me
Now I hate it how you hate me with a passion

You're my sunshine, but you made me blind
And I apologize if you wasted time loving me
And sometimes when I close my eyes
I still see your smile and pretend that you ain't done with me
