Ashes

Dumped the ashes in the ocean

On the street and in the cold wind

Can't get a grip on this life

I ain't getting any wiser

Just colder and unkinder

No matter how hard I try

I guess I'll try a little harder

For this whole thing is darker

And I know there is no one else to blame

Maybe I'll swim out a little farther

Try it on for starters

Hold my breath, swim beneath the flames

When the days just ache awake

Through the mist, time hurt and hate

The sun dies on the horizon

Looking for a fire to put my hand in

To light the darkness that I stand in

No matter how hard I try

I guess I'll try a little harder

For this whole thing is darker

And I know there is no one else to blame

Maybe I'll swim out a little farther

Try it on for starters

Hold my breath, swim beneath the flames

Maybe I'll swim out a little farther

Try it on for starters

Hold my breath, swim beneath the flames

I guess I'll try a little harder

For this whole thing is darker

And I know there is no one else to blame

Maybe I'll swim out a little farther

Try it on for starters

Hold my breath, swim beneath the flames

I guess I'll try a little harder

For this whole thing is darker

And I know there is no one else to blame
