Ashes

Cold ash on the hearth
Biting my own lip
Ring on the pine
Watchin' the firewall fade

Ice glaze on your ghost
Talking to the air
I'm drowning in the quiet
Silence, everywhere (Can you hear me)

Oh, you pull up the drawbridge to stay (Hear it crack)
Cold, blind to the night and the day
I keep reaching, for a ghost in the dark
And washing the ashes away

Car keys on the shelf
Suitcase by the stairs
Dirty ring on the glass
Silence, everywhere

Oh, you pull up the drawbridge to stay (Lockin' me out)
Cold, blind to the night and the day
I keep reaching, for a ghost in the dark
And washing the ashes away

Ten years of building this home out in the cold
But every single time the emotional weather gets heavy
It's a hurricane and fade away
It's gettin' old

Slow, burn (so cold)
Take, me, down
Drown

Drowned
