|
Tick-tock went the watch on your wrist |
|
Telling you softly of the minutes you've missed |
|
Kneeling down with your head in the bowl |
|
Telling yourself, there should never be days like this |
|
Just when you thought that you had it down |
|
You woke up dreaming of cocaine and clowns |
|
Everybody knew that you sang the blues |
|
No one could guess that you would sing them like this |
|
Chorus |
|
Smoke and ashes |
|
Smoke and ashes |
|
A comet burns and then it crashes |
|
Smoke and ashes |
|
You spilled the beans on friday night |
|
Now monday's here and there's no one in sight |
|
But, hey, that's the price that you've got to pay |
|
For letting yourself get your own way |
|
Chorus |
