charles harte - ashes lyrics

[chorus]
at the end of the day i am ashes
when the sun goes
all that’s left on the ground

at the end of the day is just ashes
is this the end?
or will the sun rise again?
oh oh oh

[verse 1]
yeah
i don’t shine under pressure, man. i stumble and i shake
and i grumble and i ache after i crumble and i break
i’ll lie and say i’m humbled, but it’s fake
i can’t explain myself, i always fumble my mistakes
and succumb to some ho hum doldrums
numb giant but no fee fi fo fum
jack’s beanstalk, after we talk it all seems lost
i feel you kicking on my soul like old reeboks
free box from the gods, and now it’s opened up wide
the demons mopin’ inside were hopin’ that i’d
let down my guard, but i opened my eyes
i put my pen on the page and i wrote ‘em my lines
i’ve had sadder sat+rdays and i’m best when you don’t touch this
i’d rather gather ways that i can just adjust justice
and somehow make it fair that you left me how you did
and somehow get to where i can accept that i am still just a kid
[chorus]
at the end of the day i am ashes
when the sun goes
all that’s left on the ground

at the end of the day is just ashes
is this the end?
or will the sun rise again?
oh oh oh

[verse]
maybe life is a game
i didn’t wanna to show up
but i’m here all the same
might as well blow up
hard work is a pain
i don’t really wanna grow up
i don’t really wanna grow up

i don’t really wanna grow up

gonna stay at home bruh
cause it turns out
when you light all your matches
you burn out
and your sh+t burns down
the walls start caving in
next thing you know you’re just a slave to your brain again
(h+llo?)
maybe one day i’ll be a has+been
who’s saddened cause he already happened but
(uh huh, uh huh)
right now i’m a haven’t who hasn’t been and i’m maddened, like
(right)
i’m so existential, it’s detrimental, it wrecks my mental
health, i’ll dent myself it’s accidental, i’m temperamental
(that’s true)
i don’t know what my life is
do i know what strife is?
will i just stay like this, frightened, senses heightened
should i just be lifeless?
yikes it’s
(maybe)
hard to care when you know it’ll always be dashed again
(mhm)
how can you passionate
when you always turn to ash again?

[chorus]
at the end of the day i am ashes
when the sun goes
all that’s left on the ground

at the end of the day is just ashes
is this the end?
or will the sun rise again?
oh oh oh
[outro]
did you ever hear the story about the boy that melted himself down to a stump?
just a little lump, a crumpled little clump of wax that had dropped drips until there were no more drips to be dropped
he slipped from his spot where he’d sit at the top, sliding on his own liquified remains down to the cold, rocky tiles
and down there, amongst the dusty footprints and musty mothb+lls
he discovered a mountain of melted peers adhered near
just like him
a city of the singed and scarred that think too hard

he turned, concerned to a puddle of a girl to his left and asked how she got there
“i flew too close to the sun,” she said. “because that’s what you’re supposed to do.”

“how do i get out of here?” the boy cried

a mysterious mass replied. “you need to conquer the person that put you down here.”

the boy was confused. “who’s that?”

the waxy remains smiled+ or at least did whatever its equivalent of a smile was+ and said

“it’s me”
“(it’s you)”
