ASHES

Oh, you've chewed a hole in me
Edged with lies and packed with grief
I lost a little piece it seems
Somewhere in you
The way you dragged out all my lies
With fingernails like kitchen knives
Just spirals out while you deny
That anything was true
I was an idiot to move
To put my hands anywhere near you
Now I'm an epitaph to you
Oh, you've blown a hole between
Some things that were better left unseen
And now my bones are chewed down clean
Left in the ash of you

Wish I could say that it's been fun
Watching you spit nails while you try to run
But you've forgotten that this mouth is a gun
Packed with the ash of you
You whispered in a voice drunk and wet
Those words you wish I could forget
Each stitch of lyrical bullshit
None of it was true
I was an idiot to lose
My mind in the same room as you
Curled in the same stains there with you
Stuck with your eyes

Those teeth I thought were razorblades
Turned out to be a dead man's maze
And once again I'm crawling out of
Someone else's lies
Oh, you've blown a hole between
Some things that were better left unseen
And now my bones are chewed down clean
Left in the ash of you

Wish I could say that it's been fun
Watching you spit nails while you run
But you've forgotten that this mouth is a gun
Packed with the ash of you
Denial looked so good
Tasted so self-righteous too
Crawling, clawing in the dirt
Does it feel like home?
I wasted too much time
To spend it here on the strangling line
You're running and everything is fine
And I'm loaded with the ash of you
Oh, you've blown a hole between
Some things that were better left unseen
And now my bones are scrubbed down clean
Left in the ash of you

Wish I could say that it's been fun
Watching you spit nails while you try to run
But you've forgotten that my mouth is a gun
And it's loaded with the ash of you
