Ashes
I feel like cutting
my problems out of my arm
And let my blood bleed out
with no fear of scars
I just want to
lay down and bleed
And let my blood flow out
til my corpse is empty
My blood will be my tears
because I can't cry
My life is a void
no emotion left inside
For my emotion fled
as my heart burnt to ash
Because of what you said
I know you'll never take me back
I lay broken
ready to turn into earth
Because I am not a phoenix
my ashes are not my rebirth
But awakened from my prison
Hearing a siren's cry
Through a white light you were here
and said to me " This isn't goodbye"
my problems out of my arm
And let my blood bleed out
with no fear of scars
I just want to
lay down and bleed
And let my blood flow out
til my corpse is empty
My blood will be my tears
because I can't cry
My life is a void
no emotion left inside
For my emotion fled
as my heart burnt to ash
Because of what you said
I know you'll never take me back
I lay broken
ready to turn into earth
Because I am not a phoenix
my ashes are not my rebirth
But awakened from my prison
Hearing a siren's cry
Through a white light you were here
and said to me " This isn't goodbye"
