Posies - For the Ashes lyrics

First one was born then denied Will anybody get her? Second one is learning her all lines And the actions Third one has been trying all her life To get out of the ghetto Fourth one is leaving the fire For the ashes, for the Which fire is the fire that calls you out into the light Indifference or spite? First thing I'm gonna do to this town When I get a little credit Take my money and stick it in the ground Buy some gla**es Education prepares me for the fight When they try to turn their words on me Cities turned into a refuge for the ashes For the ashes, for the Which fire is the fire that turns you into a sharper eye? Has anybody tried? Someday I'm gonna wake up dead, I know My breath released into the open sky Please tighten that bandage round my head one last time Let go of my hand and close my eyes Time's coming, there's light under the door Footsteps in the exterior hallway Coming with a stethoscope, a syringe Witness, I call you all my wealth, you're my lands This little country of my own true blood In this kingdom with no king, none at all Or just a daughter and a son in law Witness, can you write me down these words? My darlings, take your time 'Cause all things will fall, all things must fall Think I'm gonna just sit here for awhile Gotta try to see what happened But I'll still stand right up to your face And 40 lashes But I never would've worried and worked that hard If they ever would have told me so That I was just working all this time For ashes, for the What fool is on the fire escape when the fire is going out? Is anybody's doubt I know it seems like nothing changes in your way Just take your time and know that all things will fall
