Ashes And FlamesYou and I meetOn the shores of the broken You swallow the ocean I Swallow my pride Only to see The way that I need you Is more than I knew I ever could In between the ashes and the flames Is a cry an awkward silence Could never contain And the falling of my hammers And the writhing of my pain Is just not as real as the way That your calling my name I can't help thinking That the way that you want me And the ghost that haunts me Are one and the same Cause you stand at my window At night wile I'm sleeping There's not a promise I'm keeping That could ever repay you In between the ashes and the flames There's a song that burns brighter Than Radio waves Bout the remnants of my Idols And the shadow of my shame About how they scatter like the rain and I can't stop crying Cause you won't stop calling my name Calling my name Calling my name up from the ashes |
