[Verse 1]
We saw your shoes by the door
Still in the shape of goodbye
Your name on a cracked phone screen
Like a spark that won't survive
Empty chairs in the kitchen
Cold rain on the window glass
We keep saying your name soft
Like we can pull you back
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know you were trying
I know you were tired
The night kept calling louder
Than the voice inside
But if there's a place above us
Where the heavy load comes down
Save a room for the broken
Save a room right now
[Chorus]
Ashes in heaven
We still feel you here
Ashes in heaven
Falling through our tears
This world can be better
We can change this pain
Ashes in heaven
We won't say your name in vain
[Verse 2]
There's a boy at the bus stop
Hands shaking in his coat
There's a girl on the corner
With nowhere left to go
We pass by like it's nothing
Then we wonder why it stays
Every wound we ignore here
Grows another grave
[Pre-Chorus]
So let's be the light they needed
Let's be the hand they missed
Pull somebody closer
Before they vanish in the mist
If we hold each other up now
Maybe fewer hearts go down
Save a room for the living
Save a room right now
[Chorus]
Ashes in heaven
We still feel you here
Ashes in heaven
Falling through our tears
This world can be better
We can change this pain
Ashes in heaven
We won't say your name in vain
[Bridge]
No more turning away
No more "not my fight"
If the dark comes for your brother
We will stand and bite
We'll break the cycle
We'll break it in our hands
Build a safer tomorrow
Starting where we stand
[Final Chorus]
Ashes in heaven
We still feel you here
Ashes in heaven
Falling through our tears
This world can be better
We can change this pain
Ashes in heaven
We won't say your name in vain
Ashes in heaven
We will learn, we will stay
Ashes in heaven
And we will change the way
