Sleep in Ashes

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I saw you by the gate Black lace on your hands You said my name like a spell Like sand in my mouth Cold roses on the floor A crown made of thorns You laughed like a broken bell In the dark corridor [Pre-Chorus] Step closer Don’t look down The wolves are awake In this house Step closer Say it slow If you want my heart Take it whole [Chorus] Sleep in ashes Sleep, sleep, sleep Sleep in ashes Keep your secrets deep Sleep in ashes Sleep, sleep, sleep If I fall under Take me with you, please [Verse 2] The mirror showed your eyes Burning blue and gold Your shadow moved ahead Like it had a soul I followed every clue On a silver thread Down the stair of bones Where the lanterns bled [Pre-Chorus] Step closer Don’t look down The wolves are awake In this house Step closer Say it slow If you want my heart Take it whole [Chorus] Sleep in ashes Sleep, sleep, sleep Sleep in ashes Keep your secrets deep Sleep in ashes Sleep, sleep, sleep If I fall under Take me with you, please [Bridge] If the moon goes blind And the doors lock tight I’ll still hear your voice In the frost tonight One last vow One last sign Kiss me like a curse And make it mine [Final Chorus] Sleep in ashes Sleep, sleep, sleep Sleep in ashes Keep your secrets deep Sleep in ashes Sleep, sleep, sleep If I fall under Take me with you, please Sleep in ashes Sleep, sleep, sleep Sleep in ashes Let the dark heart beat Sleep in ashes Sleep, sleep, sleep When the night takes me Let me dream in peace
