Ash Lyrics


We set out at dusk, we left them, well, not much
The boys were shoutin' and kickin' up dust
Oh, and as we ran with the fire behind us
And the torch in my hand, I knew I couldn't do it again
The ghosts were howlin' in the late afternoon
We were singin' along to the same old tune
I turned to my brothers to look 'em in the eyes
There was ash, ash fallin' from the sky
The moon cast a little light but the flames lit up the night
All the animals laid down and died, there was ash
Oh, and as we ran with the fire behind us
And the torch in my hand, I knew I couldn't do it again
The ghosts were howlin' in the late afternoon
We were singin' along to the same old tune
I turned to my brothers to look ’em in the eyes
There was ash, ash fallin’ from the sky
And who could tell the dogs from the men?

I seen their faces and I know where they've been
I know I'm with 'em but I ain't like them
I
And who could tell the dogs from the men?
I seen their faces and I know where they've been
I know I'm with 'em but I ain't like them
I
It makes me so tired
I was like smoke without the fire
And I know I ain't like them, no

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

American composer Michael Torke (born September 22, 1961 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin), graduated from Wauwatosa East High School, studied at the Eastman School of Music with Joseph Schwantner and Christopher Rouse, and at Yale University, and writes music influenced by jazz and minimalism. Sometimes described as a post-minimalist, his most postminimal piece is Four Proverbs, in which the syllable for each pitch is fixed and variations in the melody produce streams of nonsense words. Other works in this style include Book of Proverbs and Song of Isaiah.
