Ashes on the Stereo

[Verse 1]
Bite through the silence
Skin on a wire
Hands full of ticket stubs
Heart still on fire
Stare down the exit sign
Dare it to glow
I keep my anger packed
Ready to blow
[Chorus]
Turn it up till it breaks my bones
I wanna leave my ashes on the stereo (hey!)
Scream along till my throat runs cold
If I’m gonna go down
Let ’em feel the echo
Turn it up till the speakers choke
I wanna leave my ashes on the stereo
Yeah
Burn this quiet
Burn this quiet slow
[Verse 2]
Cracks in the mirror
Show who I was
Teeth on the bottle rim
Blame it on “just because”
Scroll through the letdowns
Names in a row
Every false promise
Every “I told you so”
[Chorus]
Turn it up till it breaks my bones
I wanna leave my ashes on the stereo (oh yeah)
Scream along till my throat runs cold
If I’m gonna go down
Let ’em feel the echo
Turn it up till the speakers choke
I wanna leave my ashes on the stereo
Yeah
Burn this quiet
Burn this quiet slow
[Bridge]
Maybe I’m wrong
Maybe I’m right
Either way I’m
Feeding the fight
If this is all
I ever control
Let it be volume
Over my soul (woo)
[Chorus]
Turn it up till it breaks my bones
I wanna leave my ashes on the stereo
Scream along till my throat runs cold
If I’m gonna go down
Let ’em feel the echo
Turn it up till the speakers choke
I wanna leave my ashes on the stereo
Yeah
Burn this quiet
Burn this quiet slow
