Lyrics

Lights Out

Ashes of love
Clutched in my
Shaking, weary, hollow hands
Ashes of love
Clutched in my
Shaking, weary, hollow hands

I am too depressed to show you
How depressed I really am

It feels beyond expression
The weight of the mask
Buries me into silence
And no one can tell
The light inside me is out
Screaming for help
Whilst muting myself
And no one can tell
The light inside me is out
Trapped in a secret mental hеll
Where destructivе fires burn
Striking a match
Under the mask
Burning myself again
Hating myself
Hurting myself
Muting myself again

I am too depressed to show you how depressed I am
I am too depressed to show you how de-

Ashes of love
Clutched in my
Shaking, weary, hollow hands
Ashes of love
Clutched in my
Shaking, weary, hollow hands

It feels beyond expression
The weight of the mask
Buries me into silence
No one can tell
The light in me is out
I'm screaming for help
Whilst I'm muting myself
Trapped in a secret mental hell
Where destructive fires burn
I'm not alive and I'm wasting my turn
So strike the match 'cause I will never learn
Forever and ever this fire will burn
Everything reduced to ashes and I am the urn
I am the hollow urn
I am the urn
Everything reduced to ashes and I am the urn
