"Ashley"

Standing now in the mirror that I built myself

And I can't remember why the decision wasn't mine

But it seems I'm only clinging to an idea now

Took my heart and sold it out

To a vision that I wrote myself

And I don't want to be somebody in America

Just fighting the hysteria

I only wanna die someday

Someday, someday

When I burst into flames

I'll leave you the dust, my love

Hope a bit of it will be enough

To help remember the days

When we came to this place

I told you I'd spill my guts

I left you to clean it up

I'm bursting out of the

Seems like now it's impossible to work this out

I'm so committed to an old ghost town

Is it really that strange if I always wanna change?

And if only the time and space between us wasn't lonely

I'd disintegrate into a thousand pieces

I think I'm making a mistake

But if I decide to break, who will fill the empty space?

So now if I figure this out

Apart from my beating heart

It's a muscle but it's still not strong enough

To carry the weight of the choices I've made

I told you I'd ride this out

It's getting harder every day somehow

I'm bursting out of myself

"Too many guys think I'm a concept

Or I complete them or I'm going to 'Make them alive'

But I'm just a fucked up girl

Who's looking for my own peace of mind

Don't assign me yours"
