Ashes Ain’t Got Feelings

I burned it all, let the smoke rise high, Didn’t flinch, didn’t say goodbye. The fire don’t ask what you regret — It just takes what it can’t forget. My heart went up with the rest of the lies, No need to mourn what never cries. You can keep your ghosts and your meanings — Ashes ain’t got feelings. Ashes ain’t got feelings, They don’t scream, they don’t heal things. What’s gone is gone — no soul remains, Just soot that doesn’t care for names. You can dig, you can plead, But the embers won’t bleed. I left love out in the ceiling, ’Cause ashes… Ain’t got feelings. I watched her cry as I walked away, Not ’cause I hated — I just couldn’t stay. The world don’t change for a heart that breaks — It just moves on and never waits. Ashes ain’t got feelings, No warmth in that ceiling. It burned too long to ever glow — It died before it let me go. I ain’t cold, I’m just done. There’s a difference when you’ve faced the sun. Ashes ain’t got feelings — But I remember when I did.
