(90's Grungy instrumental start leading into the first verse) (Verse 1) Feedback bleeding through the wire Another ghost inside this broken-down machine We bought the lie, we fueled the fire And washed the blood off until the hands were clean Yeah, you talk real loud but you don't say a thing Just another puppet dancing on a string (Chorus) Burn the ash Drown it out, bury it deep Sell your soul for a promise you can't keep Choking on the ash of a burning sky Yeah, we're all just waiting for the well to dry Burn the ash Tear it down, throw it away There's nothing left to save (Guitar Solo - Heavy, abrasive, lots of fuzz and feedback) (Verse 2) Fluorescent lights flickering overhead Bleaching out the colors till we're dead A million faces looking at their hands Strangers walking through the desert sand Got the poison, got the cure, it's all the same Just a brand-new face for the exact same game (Chorus) Burn the ash Drown it out, bury it deep Sell your soul for a promise you can't keep Choking on the ash of a burning sky Yeah, we're all just waiting for the well to dry Burn the ash Tear it down, throw it away There's nothing left to save (Bridge) Mold in the drywall, cracks in the floor We don't even know what we are fighting for anymore Just scream into the microphone, distort the pain Try to find a little shelter from the heavy rain Is anybody listening? Is anybody there? Are am i just screaming into thin air? (Guitar Solo - Heavy, abrasive, lots of fuzz and feedback) (Chorus) Burn the ash Drown it out, bury it deep Sell your soul for a promise you can't keep Choking on the ash of a burning sky Yeah, we're all just waiting for the well to dry Burn the ash Tear it down, throw it away There's nothing left to save (Bridge) Mold in the drywall, cracks in the floor We don't even know what we are fighting for anymore Just scream into the microphone, distort the pain Try to find a little shelter from the heavy rain Is anybody listening? Is anybody there? Are am i just screaming into thin air? (Outro) Burn the ash Nothing left to save... Just throw it away... Burn the ash Just tear it down... There's nothing left to save. (Feedback fades out)
