Ali Lambert - Ashes to Ashes lyrics

rate me

I tried to warn you

Sharp and jealous

Screams of misplaced trust

Dirt to dirt to dust

Shattered into pieces

The memory of tonight

Lifeless in my hands

As in your own

Butterfly wing beating

Ebbs away to nothing.

Red, and raw and hurt

Dust to dust to dirt

Safe keeping

Locked away in cold caresses,

Stone fortresses

Stolen kisses

Knife wounds I couldn't heal

Twisted the blade

Widened the gash

I tried to warn you.
