Ben Saylor - Ashes

The pages are burning
We threw it all into the fire
Playing a game of desire

And I'm sure you're tired of feeling helpless
You're choking on lines of velvet
But you'll never know
When you're too close to his gold eyes

And the smoke is getting closer
Did he ever really know you
As you empty all the glasses
Feel the love fade into ashes

Did he say that he was sorry
When he made your morning coffee
Filled your cup with something poison
Sweet relief from all the noise and

The hills glow with flames its
The price of your vain celebration
Strange how you won't stay away from it now

And I'm sure you're angry the way he hurt you
Your heart is out past its curfew
But you'll never know
If you're too close to his gold eyes

And the smoke is getting closer
Did he ever really know you
As you empty all the glasses
Feel the love fade into ashes

Did he say that he was sorry
When he made your morning coffee
Filled your cup with something poison
Sweet release from all the noise that

You don't want to deal with these memories
Spinning round and round inside of your head
Try to heal the burns you just wanted peace
Should have never let him climb into your bed
