The Beautiful Strangers

Ashes
Now that I've set myself on fire
And I'm lying right beside her
I'm afraid to even move
Don't wanna break the dream
Don't wanna break the mood
'Cause it's a Devil in a Sunday hat
Like crossing paths with a black cat
This is nobody's game to win or lose
Not until you take a step and walk in my shoes
And all that they say is just to breathe
Take it in, lay it down so you can see
But I lie on the floor
Can't talk or walk anymore
Like the ash blackens my hands
We put a black mark to all of our plans
This is no time to dance, time to joke
Is there any point fixing what's not really broken
And all that they say is just to breathe
Take it in, lay it down so you can see
But I lie on the floor

'Cause you're not mine anymore
I see you across the table
You reach out your hand to me
Look at me with your blue eyes
But the ashes are all I'm seeing now
And you'll blow away into the night
I'll sit alone in the dust and wonder why
And all that they say is just to breathe
Take it in, lay it down so you can see
But I lie on the floor
See your ashes scattered 'round my house
And through my door
And I'm lying here, wondering
How and when you slipped through my hands
And all that they say is just to breathe
But I lie on the floor
There's nothing left to burn anymore
