Lyrics
CINDERELLA'S ASHES
Verse 1
Smile's a silent stranger
Hope's a long lost friend
Another lonely sigh
Shut my mouth and count to ten
Verse 2
I blame it on my mother
My father never cared
But if I knew what I know now I wouldn't be right here
Not right here
Chorus
I am Cinderella's ashes
I've been burned down to the ground
Yes, I'm Cinderella's ashes
Only you can save me now
Verse 3
They look at me like nothing
You look at me like that
If I could do it over I'd change everything
I would change myself
Bridge
I pitch like a girl
Sometimes insecure
My tongue gets tied in knots
Not a perfect ten
Beauty comes from within
If you let me in I'll give you all I got
