Dylan Owen - Garden of the Ashes Lyrics

Lyrics Garden of the Ashes - Dylan Owen



When we meet again
When we, when we meet again
When we meet again
When we, when we meet again
When we meet again
When we, when we meet again
We will not be strangers anymore
When we meet again
When we, when we meet again
When we meet again
When we, when we meet again
We will not be strangers anymore
When we meet again it might be New York or the city or the rain
Or maybe not until our next life,
And if so, then I get closer to you every day
'Cause ever since we started, we built ourselves a garden
That somehow got filled with flames and I feel like a liar now
For six years I've tried and found
A song that brings tears to your eyes won't put this fire out
Instead, it only makes it burn harder
Only makes it hurt stronger, only makes it last longer
Only makes me sure that my words that once were pure
By now have turned somber
Once they turn up on your front lawn
And I'm still trying to process everything I cared for
I'm still looking for your face on strangers in an airport
If it all comes down to a ticket I haven't purchased yet
Then I'm afraid I'll still be searching when
When we meet again
When we, when we meet again
I don't wanna let this go but we've reached the end
And if we never return I'll just
Stand here forever and burn, burn, burn
When we meet again
When we, when we meet again
I don't wanna let you go but we've reached the end
So if we never return I'll just stand here
Forever with my hands on my chest and I'll burn
The only way we know how
I burn right through my clothes now
Burn like the emotions that we've grown out of
Burn like the fires in your Colorado home town
Burn like your brother in the hospital
Burn like my grandfather when we had to watch him go
Burn like that empty space when you don't have an answer
Burn like that feeling when you lose someone your love took
All the forbidden words that hit you first
Life went easy on us most of the time but it didn't work
Enough to bend my feelings back, enough that I could live and learn
Enough to know you're happy now and that just makes me insecure
Well hallelujah, all I learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you and you did first
If I could fit our biographies into six words
I would not be this hurt
When we meet again
When we, when we meet again
I don't wanna let this go but we've reached the end
And if we never return I'll just stand here forever and burn
When we meet again
When we, when we meet again
I don't wanna let you go but we've reached the end
So if we never return I'll just stand here
Forever with my hands on my chest and I'll burn
This song is dedicated to anyone
Who's ever been kept awake with someone
Bare up a loss
Just living there in their thoughts that won't die
No matter how hard you try slamming the door
And as I finally start to walk away, you can't hear me at all
So goddamnit Annie, I know it's terrible for us but it's been great
My words are dead, wait,
And I'll carry the corpse until my muscles tear
I'll jump in there and I'll bury the torch that burns, you know me
I want that movie scene ending, where I'm sprinting down the airport
Pumped burying it all, married or not
Up in paradise, I'm prepared to be wrong
But almost positive you're poud of the
Space that you've spared in your heart
So here I am again, I'm clearly alone
Running down the aisle with my miracle song
Here I am again and I'm clearly alone
Running down the aisle with my miracle song
When we meet again
When we, when we meet again
I don't wanna let you go but we've reached the end
And if we never return I'll just stand here forever and burn
One last time
When we meet again
When we, when we meet again
I don't wanna let you go but we've reached the end
So if you never return I'll just stand here
Forever, every chance that I get to and burn
