Smoke & Ash

[Intro/Outro] And I can see you And I believed you But now I lead you Just to leave you [Verse 1] Put me on this little rock And put me in this little box And tell me everything is fine And hush me when I begin to cry Assure me this is all a plan That I am guided by his hand Then push me into a bigger box With all the little spots Then watch us grow into bigger spots Then move us into a bigger box And all the while, the ticking clock Keeps ticking as our bodies rot Release me out into the wild And paint this darkness with a smile Then push me through the assembly line The clock keeps ticking, eating time The lines begin to blur and fade As time is stripped and falls away And now I've reached our final days Just hoping you will let me stay [Hook] And I can see you, through all the broken glass And I believed you, were everything I'd asked But now I lead you, through all the smoke and ash Just to leave you, inside my broken past [Verse 2] Silence forced it’s way between us Counting down to the day I leave us Walking at the edge of time And you were on the other side The skies churn violently all around us How could the sounds here not astound us? We fall inside the same hole Hands full of dirt try'na gain control But the more we claw and the more we kick Means the more we draw out the blood is sick And now the blood it drips until it filles and it clots And we thrash and we scratch, and we swim to the top The lines begin to blur and fade As time is stripped and falls away And now I've reached our final days Just hoping you will let me stay [Hook] [Intro/Outro] [Hook x2]
