Standing Still Lyrics by Buddahead

Ashes

2008

You've got room to wear the clothes you want
But there is no one there to show them off too
This is how the past sticks to you
There was a time you had inspiration
A recipe for your life

You were gliding over your youth

All the ashes you spread
All the love that you give
That is who you are, how hard you break
For the love you take
All the fires you burn
To dry oceans of hurt
All the time you've wasted in vain
And you're standing still
You are tired and you're losing will
You've got so much time to kill;
You've been running just to stand still

Some times it hurts to scratch your skin
But feeling pain takes your mind off him
You wrap your arms and squeeze your bones
You always thought if you loved enough
Held it close for long enough
You would never lose;
How wring you were

All the ashes you spread
All the love that you give
That is who you are, how hard you break
For the love you take
All the fires you burn
To dry oceans of hurt
All the time you've wasted in vain
And you're standing still
You are tired and you're losing will
You've got so much time to kill;
You've been running just to stand still

Oh, how life might take what dreams may come
How life might take what dreams may come
