Verse 1

I walked through fire just to find you gone

Mountains I conquered, seas I ripped and roared upon

Your shadow claws at me where the light should live

A ghost in my chest, bleeding — nothing left to give

Pre-Chorus

I ignored the warning screaming in my head

Now every breath I take feels like the dead

Chorus

I’m drowning in the ashes of us

Burned to the core, but I still touch

The ruins of love we let slip away

I scream into the void, it won’t obey

Ashes of us, tearing through my veins

Heavy like chains, pulling me into pain

Verse 2

I traded forever for sparks that died in the night

Foolish desire, now I’m fighting this endless fight

The green grass I chased was poison in disguise

I built up a kingdom, watched it burn before my eyes

Pre-Chorus

Your voice cuts sharper than any knife

Echoes through the wreckage of my life

Chorus

I’m drowning in the ashes of us

Burned to the core, but I still touch

The ruins of love we let slip away

I scream into the void, it won’t obey

Ashes of us, tearing through my veins

Heavy like chains, pulling me into pain

Bridge

If I could rip the past from my skin

I’d pull you close, never let the fire dim

Now I’m adrift in oceans of rage and lies

Hunting for love in a thousand empty eyes

(Shouted)

ASHES OF US!

BURNED, BROKEN, NEVER ENOUGH!

Chorus

I’m drowning in the ashes of us

Burned to the core, but I still touch

The ruins of love we let slip away

I scream into the void, it won’t obey

Ashes of us, tearing through my veins

Heavy like chains, pulling me into painI once owned the mountains, I once sailed the seas

But without you, it’s only ashes and memories

ONLY ASHES… AND MEMORIES!
