PLACEBO
"Ashtray Heart"
(Steve Ludwin / Brian Molko / Jordan Page)

[Intro:]
Mi cenicero, mi cenicero
Mi corazon de cenicero
Mi cenicero, mi cenicero
Mi corazon de cenicero

You are the birth and you are waste
You are the one who took my place
You took a jump into forever
A leap of faith I could not take

[Pre-Chorus:]
And it was
A leap of faith I could not take
A promise that I could not make
A leap of faith I could not take
A promise that I could not make

[Chorus:]
(Mi cenicero, mi cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi corazon de cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi cenicero, mi cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi corazon de cenicero)

You were alone before we met
No more forlorn than one could get
How could we know we had found treasure?
How sinister and how correct

[Pre-Chorus:]
And it was
A leap of faith I could not take
A promise that I could not make
A leap of faith I could not take
A promise that I could not make

[Chorus:]
(Mi cenicero, mi cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi corazon de cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi cenicero, mi cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi corazon de cenicero)

(Mi cenicero, mi cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi corazon de cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi cenicero, mi cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi corazon de cenicero)

I tore the muscle from your chest
And used it to stub out cigarettes
I listened to your screams of pleasure
Now watch the bedsheets turn blood red

[Chorus:]
(Mi cenicero, mi cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi corazon de cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi cenicero, mi cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi corazon de cenicero)

(Mi cenicero, mi cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi corazon de cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi cenicero, mi cenicero)
My ashtray heart
(Mi corazon de cenicero)
