Ashes on the Snow

metal, Symphonic metal ballad with intimate piano intro, male vocals starting soft and close, Strings swell under the verses; huge, crashing drums and distorted rhythm guitars enter in the first chorus, Soaring lead guitar doubles the vocal hook in the second chorus, Choir pads and cymbal swells lift the final refrain into a cinematic climax, then all drops back to solo piano on the last line, symphonic metal, ballad, emotional

[Verse 1] Quiet house One cup One chair Your sweater still On the back of mine there I talk out loud To the empty air Like you might answer If I just sit and stare [Chorus] Say my name in the dark once more I’m still waiting at the open door All these days fall Ashes on the snow I would burn it all Just to let you know If you’re out there If you feel this glow I am yours Under ashes on the snow [Verse 2] Clock hands drag Through another year Your laugh still rings In the rooms you’re not here I wear your ring On a shaking chain Every heartbeat Spells your faded name [Chorus] Say my name in the dark once more I’m still waiting at the open door All these days fall Ashes on the snow I would burn it all Just to let you know If you’re out there If you feel this glow I am yours Under ashes on the snow [Bridge] Take my breath Take my skin and bone If there’s a path That can lead you home I will tear the sky I will break this stone I am not afraid To be undone Alone [Chorus] Say my name in the dark once more I’m still waiting at the open door All these days fall Ashes on the snow I would burn it all Just to let you know If you’re out there If you feel this glow I am yours (I am yours) Under ashes on the snow
