Ashes or Forever

That little boy inside me
He can’t breathe tonight
You watched him bleed out slowly
Alone in the dark of night

He will never be the same again
But breaking me won't ever happen
Congratulations you won
Our love story is done

It was your last chance
It was now or never
A simple choice, ashes or forever
Traded your future for revenge
And that’s how our story ends

Grieving you while you’re alive
The hardest thing I've had to survive
It's a wicked kind of violence
I wrote our eulogy in silence
I don’t hate you, that’s too easy
What I feel is worse to hold
I loved what you could have been
Now I’m burying part of my soul

It was your last chance
It was now or never
A simple choice, ashes or forever
Traded your future for revenge
And that’s how our story ends

It was now or never
A simple choice, ashes or forever
Traded your future for revenge
And that’s how our story ends

You chose revenge
That’s how our story ends
That’s how our story ends
That’s how our story ends
That’s how our story ends
That’s how our story ends
