Ashes Lyrics by Donaven

2024

[Verse 1]
We played ring around the rosie
Ashes, ashes, ashes
Torched our bond
The posies are ashes, ashes, ashes
And it's funny you even know me
For six years I let petals heal
Diseased by your past
Now, dejavú
How dare you flame those wounds

[Pre-Chorus]
Now you lose the privilege
Pillaged my forgiveness

[Chorus 1]
I can't trust you can change the abuse
Scream and spew lies like truth
Swingin' high, crashing low
Every hope up in smoke
What the hell is "I love you" from you
As I'm choking on ashes, ashes, ashes?
Ashes, ashes, ashes

[Verse 2]
Didn't need another reason
To grieve more ashes
All these damn ashes
My rotted roots attracted maggots
'Cause your brutal love bred my ugly habits
I lived for the ashes, ashes, ashes
Naive, thought I was lucky
To finally have a mommy
Choose me over God, pride, and color
'Til you tried diminishing my brilliance and wonder

[Chorus 1]
I can't trust you can change the abuse
Scream and spew lies like truth
Oh, swingin' high, crashing low
Every hope up in smoke
What the hell is "I love you" from you
As I'm choking on ashes, ashes, ashes?
Ashes, ashes, ashes

[Pre-Chorus]
Now you lose the privilege
Pillaged my forgiveness

[Chorus 2]
I'm protecting my peace
Won't let you burn me again
Again, survived hell and then some
The damage is done
I won't tolerate supremacy
Let these keys be the rain
Chords washing away
The trauma, regret, and faith
As I'm choking on ashes, ashes, ashes
Ashes, ashes
(Ashes, ashes, ashes
Ashes, ashes)

[Outro]
Ashes, ashes, ashes
We played ring around the rosie
Ashes, ashes, ashes
I won't fall down (ooh, ah)
