Ashes Lyrics by William Caesar

I Saw An Owl In The Mirror

0

[Verse 1]
Who are they to say who I am?
I should've been told when I had the chance
Before I faced it dead on
Soon, you're dead & then you're gone

Death has a thousand words to describe it
But it's easier to explain it in a second
It just happens
And then it blackens

[Chorus]
I see my reflection on the urn of my arms
A thing of beauty to keep me from harm
I hope to be like you one day
Ashes in silence, no need for a grave

[Verse 2]
I never asked where I came from
And never asked where it ends
I never believed what was above
But I believe in the depths

Mother never brought up topics to taboo
Now it pricks at me, soul is voodoo
I wish you told me what happens
Before you turned to ashes

[Chorus]
I see my reflection on the urn of my arms
A thing of beauty to keep me from harm
I hope to be like you one day
Ashes in silence, no need for a grave

[Bridge]
Where do we go?
What do we see?
How do we grow?
If we don't speak

Remind your child
Where it all ends
Topic seen so wild
It's all normal, my friend

[Chorus]
I see my reflection on the urn of my arms
A thing of beauty to keep me from harm
I hope to be like you one day
Ashes in silence, no need for a grave
