Ashes
Assuming We Survive Lyrics

Deal with this or die alone
I must face my struggles head on, or I will be left isolated and defeated

Something tells me I should be cautious (But I only know one way to go)
I am aware of the risks, but I am committed to forging ahead despite them

Straight to the top
My ambition is to achieve success and surpass my current level

I won't stop until I get what I need
I am driven and determined to attain my goals, no matter how challenging

I feel the darkness consuming me / Against my will / But I'm still blocking violence / But behind my eyelids / This Pain is too hard not to feel
I am struggling with inner turmoil and emotional pain, but I am trying to resist becoming violent or destructive

You can be sure / I never knew another way / (There's nothing left to say)
I have always been this way and there is no point in questioning or doubting myself

I try to tell myself that I cannot resist / Everything that I touch turns to ashes
I am trying to come to terms with the fact that my actions often have negative consequences

I try to tell myself resist, resist, resist / Everything that I touch will burn to ashes
I am reminding myself to exercise restraint and be mindful of the impact of my actions

I feel to comfort, I feel no relief, I feel no safety / I'm drowning in silence to distort the sirens / As smoke feels the air that I breathe
I am overwhelmed by feelings of anxiety and fear, and I cannot escape the consequences of my past actions

Unless you're me, you'll never know / I never know which way to go
No one else can truly understand or relate to the struggles I face each day, and I often feel lost and uncertain

Get in my way and you will turn to ashes
I will not hesitate to eradicate any obstacles that stand in the way of my goals or well-being
