I've watched the world you created fall around your feet
I've heard you talking to strangers, words I can't repeat
I've seen the things, you do, that leave me feeling used
So tell me more - what are you tryin' to prove ?
You've burnt the bridges, that would carry us from bad to good
You played with fire, burnt your fingers like I knew you would
You didn't listen, nothing matters, it's your final call
You lit your fires in the one place you had it all...
That's not snow falling from the skies above
This ain't no winter wonderland of love
There'll be no footprints to lead you home
Those decisions you made have left you standing alone...
… And the ashes just keep getting higher
BREAK... (And the ashes just keep getting higher...)
You just don't stop – you just keep adding fuel
Who taught you that – this life should be so cruel?
Still throwing punches do you ever just admit defeat?
Your world is burning and you're still turning up the heat.
Just look around you can't you see the things that you are doin'?
You're suffocating in your own world of wreck and ruin
There's no way out, there's just no point in tryin'
I know the ashes aren't the only thing around here lying....
That's not snow falling from the skies above
This ain't no winter wonderland of love
There'll be no footprints to lead you home
Those decisions you made have left you standing alone...
And the ashes just keep getting higher...
And the ashes just keep getting higher...
And those ashes just keep getting higher.
