[Verse 1] I walked that road in a cloud of dust Past broken glass and rusted trust Every door held a darker room Every promise fed the bloom Names on the wall, faded gray I learned to leave, I learned to say You can keep that hollow throne I’m not made of stone [Pre-Chorus] I see the smoke I know the shape Of every chain I used to wear I hear the call To come back down But I’m already Out of there [Chorus] Ashes behind I’m gone, I’m gone Ashes behind I’m not staying long No more ruins No more chains I’m walking out In the hurricane Ashes behind I’m gone, I’m gone (I’m gone) [Verse 2] I bled my time in a room of ghosts Fed them fear, and they took the most Cold hands reaching for my name Trying to make me stay the same But my feet hit hard on the open ground I found my voice, I made a sound If your kingdom falls, let it fall I won’t miss it at all [Pre-Chorus] I see the smoke I know the shape Of every chain I used to wear I hear the call To come back down But I’m already Out of there [Chorus] Ashes behind I’m gone, I’m gone Ashes behind I’m not staying long No more ruins No more chains I’m walking out In the hurricane Ashes behind I’m gone, I’m gone (I’m gone) [Bridge] Let it crack Let it break I won’t kneel I won’t wait You can keep What’s left of you I’m the fire Passing through [Final Chorus] Ashes behind I’m gone, I’m gone Ashes behind I’m not staying long No more ruins No more chains I’m walking out In the hurricane Ashes behind I’m gone, I’m gone Ashes behind I’m gone, I’m gone (I’m gone)
