Ashes 04:21
Don't want to know, don't want to talk about it I pull it close and bury deep Say I'm just fine but I'm spinning in circles and sinking Cause it's that one secret that won't pass my lips It's that heavy burden I can no longer lift It's that memory I pretend don't exist I sing lullabies til I'm lulled to sleep Keep praying for shelter, praying for peace Cause you set me on fire Ashes to ashes, that's all that's left of me It wasn't love, it was a power struggle You used your hands like a greedy thief You spread my legs, forced yourself in and Took what you could of me I sing lullabies til I'm lulled to sleep Keep praying for shelter, praying for peace Cause you set me on fire Ashes to ashes, that's all that's left of me I once had a dream but it died in arson Once had a heart but it burned up, burned out This is not the end it's a new start, new start New start, new start To rise from the ashes New dream, new heart New dream, new heart I sing lullabies til I'm lulled to sleep Keep praying for shelter, praying for peace Cause you set me on fire Ashes to ashes, that's all that's left of me It wasn't love, it was a power struggle

I prayed for Providence for some words to make me wiser God said, "Don't ask for miracles when you fall for thieves and liars" So I'll sing hallelujah, glory be to get me through the night Swear I'm your perfect little angel that stumbled into a knife fight Oh, won't you hold me tight? Oh, I don't know wrong from right? Oh, it's a long way back to the light Oh, it's a long way back to the light Smoking gun, Russian roulette You pull me close, whiskey on your breath I'll be your killing floor, your hit and run Cause I'm a brokenhearted lover out for blood Oh, won't you hold me tight? Oh, I don't know wrong from right? Oh, it's a long way back to the light Oh, it's a long way back to the light Oh, won't you hold me tight? Oh, I don't know wrong from right? Oh, it's a long way back to the light Oh, it's a long way back to the light

Bad Blood 03:05
I don't need a silver screen ending I just want to trust again But I can't write a love song without his hands around my neck So I tiptoe lightly, avoid your gaze Build a wall to keep me safe and Put my faith in what they say One day I'll love again I've got love notes written in suicide letters I don't have the courage to mail So I'll keep running like an outlaw from the thoughts inside my head You're the black crow sitting on the telephone wire Promising violent desire You're my heroin, my razor blade And I can't escape Oh, this bad blood haunts me Traps me in a ghost town Two years since you've gone, but I feel you Yeah, you're still around Used to visit me in nightmares but I no longer sleep I'm waiting for time to turn you into a memory You've got me wrapped around your middle finger God damn, cut me loose You've got me wrapped around your middle finger God damn, god damn cut me loose

Intentions 01:18
Lay it down in the cold dark earth Lay it down to sleep Seal my secrets in an empty bottle Drifting out to sea Let my voice mingle with chirping birds Soar above the tree Help me see that who that who I am is who I'm meant to be Let flowers grow out of the dirt Way it's meant to be Time passes, everything heals The way it's meant to be Lay it down in the cold dark earth Lay me down to sleep Seal my secrets in an empty bottle Drifting out to sea
