James Leclaire - Cold Ashes Lyrics

I took a look at our life
I put in the time in to analyze
You had many ways and you had many days
Where you could have chosen to do what was right, what was right

You may try and point the blame
But you're the one who snuffed out the flame
It once burned so bright and lit up our dark nights
But sadly now, only these cold ashes remain, remain

These cold ashes are the story of us
Once roaring hot coals now just flat silent dust
Fiery reds, passionate oranges, spontaneous yellow flashes
Are now just colourless cold ashes

You say that I couldn't provide
For the feelings you had burning inside
Instead of working it out, oh you chose to step out
And now, when I chose to leave, you're surprised, so surprised

My love was extinguished by your lies
I choked on the smoke that stung my eyes
You burned me down, by not turning him down
And sadly now, these cold ashes verify, our demise

These cold ashes are the story of us
Once roaring hot coals now just flat silent dust
Fiery reds, passionate oranges, spontaneous yellow flashes
Are now just colourless cold ashes

These cold ashes are the story of us
Once roaring hot coals now just flat silent dust
Fiery reds, passionate oranges, spontaneous yellow flashes
Are now just colourless cold ashes
