Ashes, Ashes

I was getting sick of the traffic and all of the tickets I couldn't pay So I sold my car and took the bus back to the corner of Churchfield Way Where I lost myself in the faces of people I swear I'd met before Felt like my own feet were someone else's, I couldn't walk straight anymore

If we drive away to the place I love the most When my lungs collapse and my heart turns black I'll give my ashes to the coast

I found myself in a fishbowl and I didn't leave my house for a month What's the point in trying in conversation if you don't have the strength to talk? "But it's alright" I said, "I'll stay here, lie awake for days Count the spiders on the ceiling, 'til my mind withers away"

And if we drive away to the place I love the most When my lungs collapse and my heart turns black I'll give my ashes to the coast

And I hoped that I would see your face again, And I hoped that you would be alright And if I could find a leg to stand on, or something, Maybe I could take control of my own life

And if I could find a leg to stand on, or something, Maybe I could take control of my own life

And if we drive away to the place I love the most When my lungs collapse and my heart turns black I'll give my ashes to the coast

Give my ashes to the coast Give my ashes to the coast Give my ashes to the coast Give my ashes to the coast
