Ashes

[Verse]
Fingers trace the edge of time
Shadows stretch where stars won't shine
The echoes whisper
Sharp and cold

[Prechorus]
I tried to hold the fire in my hands
But it slipped like grains of sand

[Chorus]
Ashes ashes
That's all that's left
A spark
A blaze
Then nothing but regret
Ashes ashes
They fall like rain
Washing away what I can't explain

[Verse 2]
The sky was gold before it broke
Every word we said turned to smoke
And now the silence
It burns my ears

[Prechorus]
I tried to build a castle from the flame
But the wind laughed and took it away

[Chorus]
Ashes ashes
That's all that's left
A spark
A blaze
Then nothing but regret
Ashes ashes
They fall like rain
Washing away what I can't explain
