Ashes Lyrics
You dont understand me
And you probably never will
I got a tendency to self destruct
And a soft spot for the filth
A hair trigger temperament
A switchblade for a tongue
A walking one man genocide
With a black belt, in corrupt
EVERYTHING I TOUCH
TURNS TO ASHES
FALLS AWAY
FALLS AWAY
EVERYTHING I TOUCH
TURNS TO ASHES
SLIPS RIGHT THROUGH MY HANDS
Love me
Hate me
Isolate me
Everyday that I'm alive
Strait up mentally unstable
YOU DONT HAVE TO LIKE MY LIFE
Im a jinx, a curse;
Some say, THE WORST
Im a savage, rabid beast
Ive been called so many FUCKING things
It doesnt affect me in the least
Ive stolen, lied, been crucified
But I dont regret a thing
Im an egocentric, masochist
With a sadists point of bleak
EVERYTHING I TOUCH
TURNS TO ASHES
FALLS AWAY
FALLS AWAY
EVERYTHING I TOUCH
TURNS TO ASHES
SLIPS RIGHT THROUGH MY HANDS
Love me
Hate me
Isolate me
Everyday that I'm alive
Live to prove you wrong, its easy
When your heart is filled with ice
Chapters in my life define me
Changed me into this deprived
Strait up, mentally unstable
YOU DONT HAVE TO LIKE MY LIFE
And you probably never will
I got a tendency to self destruct
And a soft spot for the filth
A hair trigger temperament
A switchblade for a tongue
A walking one man genocide
With a black belt, in corrupt
TURNS TO ASHES
FALLS AWAY
FALLS AWAY
EVERYTHING I TOUCH
TURNS TO ASHES
SLIPS RIGHT THROUGH MY HANDS
Hate me
Isolate me
Everyday that I'm alive
Strait up mentally unstable
YOU DONT HAVE TO LIKE MY LIFE
Some say, THE WORST
Im a savage, rabid beast
Ive been called so many FUCKING things
It doesnt affect me in the least
Ive stolen, lied, been crucified
But I dont regret a thing
Im an egocentric, masochist
With a sadists point of bleak
TURNS TO ASHES
FALLS AWAY
FALLS AWAY
EVERYTHING I TOUCH
TURNS TO ASHES
SLIPS RIGHT THROUGH MY HANDS
Hate me
Isolate me
Everyday that I'm alive
Live to prove you wrong, its easy
When your heart is filled with ice
Chapters in my life define me
Changed me into this deprived
Strait up, mentally unstable
YOU DONT HAVE TO LIKE MY LIFE

This song is so spot on for me. I've never been like the other kids. Listened to metal (still do) when everyone else listened to pop and bands like Westlife, always had different interests etc. Though I've been lucky enough to find a few like-minded people, and they're now my best friends.
This song is so spot on because, even though it may not be the original meaning, it's like a big "fuck you" to all the haters.
I have to say, that you summed it up almost perfectly for me. I hate this mainstream stuff like pop and rap or whatever people listen to today, and so I listen to Metal as well. Anyone who has every stepped into my car and heard this stuff immediately go, "What is this Crap?" They make me listen to depressing Country, or stuff like Justin Beiber *Shudder, so I make them listen to this stuff they proclaim garbage, and damn do I love it! Like you said, it's a Big 'Fuck You' to the haters.

At the beginning i think he's yelling Hate like joeynobody said, but what i think he was doing was warming up his vocals before recording, they just kept it in there because it sounded fucking awesome
OMG I LOVE THIS SONG!!! Makes me want to get up and kick a door in!
amazing song.
even better live.. seriously.
They are AMZING live. If you are going to see any show see theirs, hell if its your first show see theirs, you will love it.
Basically somebody has made them rotten and angry, and he says you don't have to like me or my life, just stay out of it.
kind of like that grandmother who nags about you life, your looks, morals, religion, etc.
Yeah guys. I'd have to say that they had the craziest pit I have ever been caught in. When this guy is screaming in your face its like you're living this song through him. When the world expects nothing but shit from you. Shit is all you achieve.
god that last line is whats true bro. all the shit in my life revolves around that phrase.

what is he yelling at the beginning of the song?
@aggiepunk07 It sounds like he screams "Hate" a few times and then says "Bring it!"

This song reminds me of Jack from The Lord Of The Lies
For some reason I read Ralph and was like WTF, but still WTF more like Roger Lol!! :)

what does he yell the few words and then BRING IT!
@garethgore I think he screams "hate" or he is just screaming.
