I was headed to the gallows I was to hang or   burn in flames   I remember the day you lit the fire   and watched our love turn to dust   I remember the flames higher and higher   I remember the way you laughed before you   finally set me free   I try to recover every time   but every time I'm back on the ground   back underground every time   I was forced into the shadows   I was the fool beaten and bruised by the game   I held on to all of our ashes
