Uh-oh, I'm a cadaver
But don't you put me in a box
I wanna grow like a tree forever
I wanna roll down in the rocks
♪
Take my hands and fold them over
Bury me in my favorite shirts
Take my mind off of my shoulders
I'll be as free as a pile of dirt
Everybody breathes the air you breathe
But nobody sees the things you see
King of ashes going home
Dreamers left him all alone
Crown of matches, a paper throne
King of ashes going home again
♪
I know she's a believer
But don't you try to pick her locks
She'll sneak up on you like a feather
She's gonna haunt you like a fox
Everybody breathes the air she breathe
But nobody sees the things she sees
The queen of ashes going home
Dreamers left her all alone
A crown of matches, a paper throne
The queen of ashes going home
♪
Oh-oh, he's a deceiver
He wants to put you in a box
All hail the king of ashes
He thinks he's real but you know he's not
Everybody breathes the air he breathe
But nobody sees the things he sees
King of ashes going home
Dreamers left him all alone
A crown of matches, a paper throne
The king of ashes going home
A castle of wax, a flaming moat
A metal mast on a feather boat
A lake of fire with sails of stones
