Ashtray Monument by Bigwig Lyrics
Free, alone
The predawn white light's coming on
Bottle on the nightstand
I count disasters on my free hand now
Run for cover there's a big one coming
You'll be lucky if you're at ground zero
No one said that this life was easy
Did that no one ever live a life this hard?
It gets hard, the bills are scattered in the yard
Ashtray monument
A life spent waiting in cement comes down
After all, it's not that bad
I still have pictures, I look back
At all the things that we once did
You said "I love you" I guess you did
Remember our life?
I did the dishes while you read out loud
Best friends, strangers now
Were our kids all we could call common ground?
The predawn white light's coming on
Bottle on the nightstand
I count disasters on my free hand now
Run for cover there's a big one coming
You'll be lucky if you're at ground zero
No one said that this life was easy
Did that no one ever live a life this hard?
It gets hard, the bills are scattered in the yard
Ashtray monument
A life spent waiting in cement comes down
After all, it's not that bad
I still have pictures, I look back
At all the things that we once did
You said "I love you" I guess you did
Remember our life?
I did the dishes while you read out loud
Best friends, strangers now
Were our kids all we could call common ground?
