Thanks to Philfine for the base instrumental gen/style prompt for this song. Lyrics by Mezandria. I got high to forget you, Still saw your face in the smoke. Burned it slow with lips that bruised, Tried to twist the pain loose. Your presence steady and cold, Like you knew just where I’d break. You felt the ground give way, Pressed down anyway. Ashes to ashes, Everything up in smoke, Nothing left to hold. Ashes to ash. Yeah, ashes to ash, baby. I watched it going down, Like gold in a fool’s crown. Ashes to ash, baby. Ashes to ash. All the times I let it slide, You thought I’d always stay. I made it easy to ignore What it cost me every day. You never saw the exit signs Until it was much too late. By then I wasn’t leaving I was already gone. Ashes to ashes. Everything up in smoke, Nothing left to hold. Ashes to ash. Yeah, ashes to ash, baby. I watched it going down, Like gold in a fool’s crown, Ashes to ash, baby. Ashes to ash. Oh why couldn't you see, What the damage done to me? Ashes to ash. Ashes to ash. Ashes to ash. Nothing left. It don't come back. Can't bring it back. Can't bring it back.
