Breathing the Ashes - Desultory

Numb the pain that is in us all

This is the only way to heal

Beneath the surface of a bleeding soul

We breath the ashes as we fall

I see the way — before it’s broken down and gone

I hear the words of a twisted burned out sou

Until the pain is gone

We’re left alone

Until the pain is gone

We’re all alone

Eyes turn red — out of reach

We breathe the ashes as we fall

Beneath the surface we try to breathe

Drive a nail into this open wound

Day by day it’s getting worse

Crawling further back into the void

Pushing everything away

Share your pain and erase the blame

What’s the point when it’s too late

Moving forward and embrace the end

Your only exit is unknown

We breathe the ashes as we fall

Drive a nail into this open wound

Day by day it’s getting worse

Crawling further back into the void

Pushing everything away

No one will ever be there — to help wash the blood from your hands

No one will ever be there

To help wash the blood from your hands

And no one will ever be there

To fix what is broken

To stop you from falling
