Ashes of Autumn
Ashes of Autumn’s fourth single WHEN IT COMES from debut album “The Darker Side of Now” deals with Melanie Flynns own experience with mental health. It is the “sequel” to LITTLE BIT BROKEN and is a look in to a very dark time of her life. The lines “Breaking again, open up and then hold your line tight, feel alive” is a stark reminder to focus on the things in life that brings you joy – especially when everything around you feel like it’s too much!

LYRICS:
Waiting on a sign, look into the sky
See what lies ahead, try to find
What’s getting in the way, break the night and day
Dreams fall behind lies
When it comes, comes
Break the fall
Oh, let it go
Breaking again, open up and then
Hold your line tight, feel alive
What’s giving you the pain, check yourself again
Dreams roll out with the tide
When it comes, comes
Break the fall
Oh, let it go
Did you get what you needed
When you went away defeated
Could you let yourself be free this time?
Waiting on a sign, look into the sky
See what lies ahead trying to find
When it comes, comes
Break the fall Oh, let it go
Did you get what you needed (what you needed)
When you went away defeated (away, yeah)
Could you let yourself be free this time?
Did you get what you needed (what you needed)
When you went away defeated (away, yeah)
Could you let yourself be free this time?
When it comes
When it comes
When it comes
When it comes
