lyrics
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 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
