Joseph Arthur Lyrics
"Ashes Everywhere"

I'll be silent in my solitude
Can't fight my smile or my gratitude
I'm afraid of what I might do 'cause there's no me if there's no me and you

I wish that I could open up your eyes
To feel the sun that burns in your mind

I can't deal with what you have done
Reincarnate
I wonder who I might become
Without potential I'm already gone
I could be as fresh as hard bubblegum

I don't have nothing now
I want me some
First some of you then some of everyone

Oh
Darling since you've been away from me
I know how the pins feel in the bowling alley
They say love is something you feel but never see
When I see you I finally disagree
I'm just trying to be all that I can be
Without destroying you now or joining the army

Your ashes must be blowing everywhere 'cause I can seem to feel you
And you're nowhere near
And though you didnt say so
I can tell that you still care
We could have had it all but then nothing is fair

I still think about washing your hair
I wish I could wash away all of your despair
