Ashes

My home is burning
These houses are turning
From black to gray to white to ash again
The hills keep smoking
My good lung is choking
On fumes of gas and clouds of ash again
It’s all just ash again

4am cops kick the door
The fire's fast and heading north
It’s ‘bout time
That you pack up your things
Oh what do I grab
Is it clothes or food or cash
Or that picture with my dad
Before he passed
Darling, take the kids and go
I’ll pack up here and hit the road
She pulled me close
Said, “no one dies alone”

My home is burning
These houses are turning
From black to gray to white to ash again
The hills keep smoking
My good lung is choking
On fumes of gas & clouds of ash again
It’s all just ash again

Baby, did you call your mom
Is she safe, or is she gone
I don’t know
We’re getting dial tone
Jenny needs her favorite doll
And Johnny wants his bat and ball
He knows
He’ll need something to hold

My home is burning
These houses are turning
From black to gray to white to ash again
The hills keep smoking
My good lung is choking
On fumes of gas and clouds of ash again
It’s all just ash again

We watch
As that orange sky burns bright
And rock
The babies while they cry
We pray
Like so many times before
And wait
To see if we’re ignored

My home is burning
These houses are turning
From black to gray to white to ash again
The hills keep smoking
My good lung is choking
On fumes of gas and clouds of ash again
It’s all just ash again
It’s all just ash again
It’s all just ash again
It’s all just ash again
Again and again
Again and again
Again and again
It’s all just ash again
