Ashes (Acoustic) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Maybe it's the way your brain works
Maybe we don't use the right words
Baby, we're too stubborn, it hurts, it hurts
Oh
I wish you could see what you do
But you might hate yourself if you knew
When we're not fighting, I'm a stranger to you, to you

[Pre-Chorus]
And all your insecurities are taken out on me

[Chorus]
You can call me a cryer, but you hurt me bad
Tears run like water, so I'm not looking back
'Cause you're just a liar and all that we had
Is lost in the fire, burned into ashes
Burned into ashes
Mmm, mmm

[Verse 2]
I don't wanna tell you goodbye
But I feel like I'm wastin' my time
And I don't see you changin' your mind, your mind

[Pre-Chorus]
And all your insecurities are taken out on me
Take 'em out on me
[Chorus]
You can call me a cryer, but you hurt me bad
Tears run like water, so I'm not looking back
'Cause you're just a liar and all that we had
Is lost in the fire, burned into ashes

[Post-Chorus]
(Keep 'em burnin') Burned into ashes
(Keep 'em burnin') Oh, they're burned to ashes
(Keep 'em burnin') Burn into ashes
(Keep 'em burnin')

[Bridge]
Oh, I fell for every single word you ever said to me
And all your insecurities are taken out on me
Take 'em out on me, go ahead

[Chorus]
Call me a cryer, but you hurt me bad
Tears run like water, so I'm not looking back
'Cause you're just a liar and all that we had
Is lost in the fire and burned into ashes

[Post-Chorus]
(Keep 'em burnin') Said they're burned into ashes
(Keep 'em burnin') Oh, they're burned into ashes
(Keep 'em burnin') Burned into ashes
(Keep 'em burnin') Oh, they're burned into ashes
[Outro]
Burned into ashes

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
