You wake up at night You can't wait until tomorrow You wanna make things right Because you don't need no sorrow Black ash all around you You're standing all alone You've gotta be tough, gotta be strong Black ash will surround you You gotta keep cool You'll make it, you've been there before Uh, please realize This is the price you pay And all that you'll leave is black ash Uh, please realize This is the price you pay And all that you'll leave is deep black ash Deep black ash, deep black ash, deep black ash There's no god in heaven There's no justice in the world Your life is slipping away You hit rock bottom There's no escape Black ash is all that remains Why don't we realize This is the price you pay And all that you'll leave is black ash Why don't we realize This is the price you pay And all that you'll leave is deep black ash Behind the clouds, there is the promised land Behind the clouds, try to understand Why don't we realize This is the price you pay And all that you'll leave is black ash And I wanna know, why don't we realize This is the price you pay And all that you'll leave is deep black ash
