LYRICS by Kris Angelis

I said some things that I didn’t mean
Scratch that, I meant them but there’s more in between 

I’m Sorry that I wasn’t graceful 
There’s broken glass in my shoes
I’m trying to dance without knowing
The steps or the notes or the cues

I’d rather jump in and clean up the mess 
than win the game of who cares less
I’d rather try, and lose the fight than 
Win the game of who has more pride 

I said some things that I didn’t mean
Scratch that, I meant them but there’s more in between 

I’m far from perfect, but honest
I often choose fight over flight
The one time I flew left me broken 
And I wish that part would just die

I’d rather jump in and clean up the mess 
than win the game of who cares less
I’d rather try, and and lose the fight than 
Win the game of who has more pride 

I can’t believe I said that 
I was trying to cross the divide
The ships that I've  sent out have all come back wrecks
But the refuge was always inside 

I’d rather jump in and clean up the mess 
than win the game of who cares less
I’d rather try, and and lose the fight than 
Win the game 
I’d rather jump in and clean up the mess 
than win the game of who cares less
I’d rather try, and and lose the fight than 
Win the game of who has more pride

Win The Game

VERSE 1:
Well, you thought you were the only one and you could choose
I would stay here – no matter what you do
Smack me down, you know you bruise my heart
You give me all the strength I need alone to start
Now the ties are all undone
So, you better run to your new someone
 
CHORUS:
You say you’re gonna put me in the ground
One long cold night no one’s around
And I say well if you do
You better dig a grave that’s big enough for two.
Well, you dig a grave big enough for two
You better dig a grave big enough for two
Woo Hoo
VERSE 2:
There’s been a lotta talk around our little town
It ain’t big enough for the two of us now
You know my Daddy’s got a big shotgun
If I were you I’d run, I’d run
Now the ties are all undone
So, you better run to your new someone
 
CHORUS:
You say you’re gonna put me in the ground
One long cold night no one’s around
And I say well if you do
You better dig a grave that’s big enough for two.
Well, you dig a grave big enough for two
You better dig a grave big enough for two
Woo Hoo
 
BRIDGE:
There are times when the sun don’t shine
You get lost and you lose your mind
Now I don’t wish you much ill will
I’ll never want you back, but I want you still
 
LEAD:
 
Now the ties are all undone
So, you better run to your new someone
 
CHORUS:
You say you’re gonna put me in the ground
One long cold night no one’s around
And I say well if you do
You better dig a grave that’s big enough for two.
Well, you dig a grave big enough for two
You better dig a grave big enough for two
Woo Hoo
Better dig (Ya gotta dig)
Better dig (Ya gotta dig)
Yeah, ya dig (Ya gotta dig)
Better dig (Ya gotta dig)
Better dig

ASHES
Lyrics: Debra Lyn / Music: Jeff Silverman

You lift me up – just to push me down
Oh, I can’t believe I used to worship your ground
You tell me lies just to watch me cry
And like a fool all I wonder is why
I don’t understand why you do me this way
Why I don’t leave or the reason I stay
 
CHORUS:
Ashes, ashes, burn this down
Ashes, ashes, no one will hear a sound
Ashes, ashes, you never will be found (Down, Down, Down, He’s Goin’, Down, Down, Down, He’s Goin’)
Who’s sorry now (Goin’ Down)
 
VERSE 2:
I was a fool – oh from the start
I believed you when you said we’d never part
You were a dream come true even my friends agreed
I said I do; you put the chains on me
I lost my way, my friends, my family
You can’t see what I don’t want you to see
 
CHORUS:
Ashes, ashes, burn this down
Ashes, ashes, no one will hear a sound
Ashes, ashes, you never will be found (Down, Down, Down, He’s Goin’, Down, He’s Goin’)
Who’s sorry now (Goin’ Down)
 
LEAD:
 
VERSE 3:
I’m gaining strength (I gain my strength) – oh every day (every day)
And sooner or later (sooner or later) you won’t stand in my way (you’re not in my way)
I’ll bide my time till you’re not lookin’ behind
I see the light and freedom is mine
I ain’t got much, but I still got my pride
No way to live barely stayin’ alive.
 
CHORUS:
Ashes, ashes, burn this down
Ashes, ashes, no one will hear a sound
Ashes, ashes, you never will be found (Down, Down, Down)
Who’s sorry now (Down, Down, Down, He’s Goin’)
He’s Goin’ Down (Down, Down, Down, He’s Goin’)
In the ashes (Down, Down, Down, He’s Goin’, Ashes)
You Won’t Be Found (Down, Down, Down, Down, Down, Down, Down)
Ashes, Ashes, (hes’ goin’ down)
Ashes Ashes
Ashes, Ashes
Ashes, Ashes
