Ash on My Sleeve

[Куплет 1] I left my name in the rain On the bus stop glass You passed like you knew me Then you kept your mask The corner store blinked red Over chipped-up tile I bought a matchbook And a little more denial [Предприпев] Now the room leans in When your shadow goes by I keep my mouth shut Let the blue hour lie [Припев] Ash on my sleeve Ash on my sleeve You come and go You leave me still Ash on my sleeve Ash on my sleeve A thin black mark I can’t wash away [Куплет 2] Your laugh from the alley Still scratches the air I stood by the railing Acting like i don’t care The train cut through town Like a dull silver knife I watched every window Hold a stranger’s life [Предприпев] Now the room leans in When your shadow goes by I keep my mouth shut Let the blue hour lie [Припев] Ash on my sleeve Ash on my sleeve You come and go You leave me still Ash on my sleeve Ash on my sleeve A thin black mark I can’t wash away [Бридж] Leave the light off Let the walls breathe slow My heart sits quiet Where the lost things go One more trace Then the night will fold Under my skin It stays cold [Припев] Ash on my sleeve Ash on my sleeve You come and go You leave me still Ash on my sleeve Ash on my sleeve A thin black mark I can’t wash away
