Ashes to Lashes (Tailspins)

Crawled through the window there’s a fire down below
Back from the Everglades with nothing to show and I’m
Sinking lower than you
An old salt with nothing lose
I’ll dive into tailspins just like everyone
The newspapers never said that love was a gift
Just a fiery pit
Reminiscent of a seismic shift
That tears the earth away from where you sit
Ashes to lashes where you threw me a fit
I could swear that’s it
So stick around to see a fortune spent
Regale a tale of how well off you’ve been
Passed down through messenger from folks long ago
It’s all smoke and mirrors cause who could have known that I’m
Sinking lower than you
An old salt with too much to lose
I’ll dive into tailspins just like everyone
The newspapers never said that love was a gift
Just a fiery pit
Reminiscent of a seismic shift
That tears the earth away from where you sit
Ashes to lashes where you threw me a fit
I could swear that’s it
So stick around to see a fortune spent
Regale a tale of how well off you’ve been
