[Damien Jurado - Ashes lyrics]

I've got a mind to shed my skin
To let out what's within
To free the light inside

My bones will be the kindling
For the fire 'round which we'll sing
And the song on which we'll ride

Ashes, ashes i am destined to be ashes
So I will melt with who is by my side
I've built around my heart a church
And the pew in which in which I perch
And the seat in which I pray

For my god is Rock and Roll the first
And though it may be cursed
It's the only game worth playing

Ashes, ashes i am destined to be ashes
So melt with me and keep
My soul from straying

Some may find beauty hard to see
But, it's easy enough for me
Just a beat and these three chords

And though I may be a stumbling fool
I am sharpening my tool
This guitar will be my sword

Ashes, ashes i am destined to be ashes
So melt with me and we will find the Lord

My heart is such a wayward ship
Briefly docking 'fore each trip
Just a kiss before I cruise

And though waves are often beckoning
There's a sudden reckoning
As your eyes have tripped my fuse

Ashes, ashes i am destined to be ashes
So melt with me, there's nothing left to lose
