Ashes and Flames lyrics
You and I meet on the shores of the broken
You swallow the ocean, I swallow my pride
Only to see the way that I need You
Is more than I knew, I ever could
In between the ashes and the flames
Is a cry an awkward silence could never contain
And the falling of my hammers and the writhing of my pain
Is just not as real as the way that You're calling my name
I can't help thinking that the way that You want me
And the ghost that haunts me are one and the same
'Cause You stand at my window at night while I'm sleeping
There's not a promise I'm keeping that could ever repay You
In between the ashes and the flames
There's a song that burns brighter than radio waves
'Bout the remnants of my idols and the shadow of my shame
About how they scatter like the rain and I can't stop crying
'Cause You won't stop calling my name
Calling my name up from the ashes
