Pile of Ash (ES335 version) Lyrics

Turned around and you were gone, in spite of our promises
Shadows scattered by your hand, linger just down the hall
Silently I’m suffocating in this void of yours
Grasping life, remembering how you made me feel alive

Crying in silence, all out of words
Fire embraced all I was, all I saw
Burned me from inside, leaving nothing but this pile of ash

Heard you laughed the other day, echoes of our hollow memories
Guess I know that time will heal all the wounds, barely leaving scars

Healing in silence, all out of words
Fire embraced all I was, all I saw
Burned me from inside, leaving nothing but this pile of ash
Rising from a fertile ground, all I was I’m sure I will become again
Smiling in silence, I’m holding back the words

The fire embraced all I was, all I saw
It burned me from inside, nurturing the ground I died upon
Finally I see through the shroud, I’m finding air despite the void
The fire of you, the ashes of me…they set me free…
