Ashes

It was late september
There was this carnival
I had a need for a million changes
So I climbed the wall
When I got to the other side
You should've seen what I saw
Falling ashes, ashes fall down

In a second I was taken in
And time stood still
I headed straight for the hall
Of mirrors
With my confession to tell
I could hear voices whispering
Baby come straight to hell
And there were falling ashes
Ashes fall down
Then someone cried

Wait a minute dear
What do we have us here?
Is there something you'd like to

Tell us
While you're waiting?
Were you jealous dear?
Angry and full of fear
The question lingers on inside
My ears

Maybe this was a place
Of atonement
For a year full of lies
See the room was full of my face
So I close my eyes
Sorry for mistakes I made
I knelt down and I cried
My tears were falling ashes,
Ashes fall down
Then I cried

Wait a minute dear
What do we have us here?
Is there something you'd like
To tell us
While you're waiting?
Were you jealous dear?
Angry and full of fear
The question lingers on inside
My ears
