Ashes Between Us

We built our hearts on borrowed time
A love that burned but lost its shine
Every touch was bittersweet
A fire we could never keep

Now the air still tastes like rain
And I can't wash away the pain

You swore that we would never fade
But every light will lose its flame

There's ashes between us
I'm choking on the truth
You broke every promise
Then called it something new
I'm falling where you left me
Still bleeding for your touch
There's ashes between us
And I still care too much

I hear your voice in every line
The words we said still twist my mind
You were the calm before the storm
Now I'm the wreck you left behind
The nights are long, the sky is numb
And I still flinch when morning comes

You swore that we would never fade
But every light will lose its flame

There's ashes between us
I'm choking on the truth
You broke every promise
Then called it something new
I'm falling where you left me
Still bleeding for your touch
There's ashes between us
And I still care too much

I keep the pieces you forgot
A memory I can't erase
If love was war we both got caught
Now all that's left are scars and chase

There's ashes between us
I'm choking on the truth
You broke every promise
Then called it something new

There's ashes between us
I'm choking on the truth
You broke every promise
Then called it something new
I'm falling where you left me
Still bleeding for your touch
There's ashes between us
And I still care too much
