Turns To Ashes

36 Crazyfists · Bitterness The Star

I'm not sick, I'm just a boy
Sifting through the newfound lie
And I'll be crawling through these ashes and dissecting
All these flies
Since the sun has died and it is still somewhat July

Is this all the world has to offer?

And I don't know how much you thought I'd be
It turns to ashes on me

One more piece inside these lines
Deeper harms my disguise
And everyone is different so everyone is sly
And everything's still horrible since everyone still dies

Is this all the world has to offer?

And I don't know how much you thought I'd be
It turns to ashes on me

No one is safe

Turns To Ashes

From the 2006 album Bitterness The Star, 'Turns To Ashes' stands as a defining track in the discography of the American post-hardcore band 36 Crazyfists. The song exemplifies the group's signature blend of melodic sensibilities and aggressive, rhythmic intensity, characteristic of the mid-2000s nu-metal and post-grunge era. With its driving guitar work and dynamic shifts, the recording captures the emotional volatility often explored in the band's catalog during this period. As a staple of their live performances and a key component of their broader body of work, the track remains a potent representation of the genre's evolution in the 2000s.
