Ashen

I am an ashen man
Visit my ashen town
Complete my paperwork
Then leave it in the dirt
'Cause I know what it is about me now that reminds me I'm not eternal
It's just that every human checkpoint that I pass sends me round in circles
I am an ashen man and I think I've never been more hopeful

I was born with nothing
And since I've gained a lot
It will stay with me in under-bed cases
And then thrown into the loft
You see, here is the pivotal moment
That will change any sullen facе
Matter doesn't evеn matter
And my eternity cannot be locked in any case

I am an ashen man
Visit my ashen town
Complete my paperwork
Then leave it in the dirt
'Cause I know what it is about me now that reminds me I'm not eternal
It's just that every human checkpoint that I pass sends me round in circles
I am an ashen man and I think I've never been more hopeful

Gold will melt
And diamond too
This is just a fleeting moment
I am dancing when it's gone
