"Ashes (Broken World)" lyrics - ESCAPE THE FATE

[Intro:]
Whoa
Whoa

An eye for an eye, a tooth for tooth
Too blind to see the truth
Well, if you could, you'd realize
This is a long time coming
Lyin' awake deep in the night
Counting the ways to make it right
Don't you know you've done me wrong
For such a long time?

[Pre-Chorus:]
Don't build an empire
'Cause I'll just burn it down

[Chorus:]
If this broken world belongs to anyone
I'll be the king when it's all said and done
If this broken world belongs to anyone
I'll be the king when it's all said and done
And make a throne from the ashes (Whoa)
And make a throne from the ashes (Whoa)

I tried and tried, I fell apart
I was broken from the start
I wish we realized
This was a long time coming
I'll begin to make it right
Never too late to start again
I've given into you for the last time

[Pre-Chorus:]
Don't build an empire
'Cause I'll just burn it down

[Chorus:]
If this broken world belongs to anyone
I'll be the king when it's all said and done
If this broken world belongs to anyone
I'll be the king when it's all said and done
And make a throne from the ashes

[Bridge:]
This motherfucker held me down underwater
Tried to suffocate me to an early fate
Pulled me through the radar and you pulled the fucking trigger
I will see your body shiver as I'm rising from the grave

[Guitar solo]

See me, motherfucker?

[Chorus:]
If this broken world belongs to anyone
I'll be the king when it's all said and done
If this broken world belongs to anyone, anyone
I'll be the king when it's all said and done, said and done
And make a throne from the ashes
And make a throne from the ashes
And make a throne from the ashes (Whoa)
And make a throne from the ashes (Whoa)
