Ashes

Talk on the corners
 We walk it off
 Like a bad hangover
 Taking longer than we thought
 Maybe I'm a believer
 That all it takes is time
 And a complicated rhythm
 Is a friend of the rhyme
 Hope you're happier now
 Than you were last year
 Head over water
 Only just about
 Don't know what it's like to drown
 I'm way too young to find out
 Can't stand the sight of my reflection anymore
 A walking callous numb from skin to the core
 Hope you're happier now
 Than you were last year
 Now the flames put out
 And I have only ashes to inhale
 And I'm here when you wanna talk
 I'm barely the same
 Since you washed your dirty linen
 In the water of my pain so
 Hope you're happier now
 Cuz I'm nearly insane
 All rhyme and reason
 Have lost their meaning
 I'm sick of feeling like
 I'm over and out like
 Fuel to the fire
 We now aspire
 To rid each other from within and without
 Sorry for asking but I'm riddled in doubt
 So are you happier now than you were last year?
 Now the flame's put out
 And we have only ashes to share
 And we're here making smaller talk
 We're both on the mend
 Keeping it together so that we can both pretend that
 We're happier now
 And this is where we remain
