I didn’t see this coming
I guess you never do
Life takes you by surprise
And you’re starting over new
I’ve been holding things together
But I can’t keep holding on
The best part of me is broken
And you keep moving on
From ashes and embers
I’m trying to rebuild
There’s nothing to hold on to
I’ve got nothing left to give
When you said you were leaving
You were already gone
Now ashes and embers are all that’s left
Where there once was a home
And Heaven can’t come soon enough
If there is such a place
And all the hell you put me through
My heart can’t erase
I can’t go on believing
That a better day will come
As I sit in the empty house
With this loaded gun
From ashes and embers
I’m trying to rebuild
There’s nothing to hold on to
I’ve got nothing left to give
When you said you were leaving
Girl you were already gone
Now ashes and embers are all that’s left
Where there once was a home
I could drive all night to find you
But I know you won’t be alone
Either way this goes tonight
One of us ain’t coming home
From ashes and embers
I’m trying to rebuild
There’s nothing to hold on to
I’ve got nothing left to give
When you said you were leaving
You were already gone
Now ashes and embers are all that’s left
Where there once was a home
From ashes and embers
I’m trying to rebuild
There’s nothing to hold on to
I’ve got nothing left to give
When you said you were leaving
Girl you were already gone
Now ashes and embers are all that’s left
Where there once was a home
Either way this goes tonight
One of us ain’t coming home
