Verse 1
You can believe whatever you want
To say that it's my fault
You didn't understand anything about us
Look at me, don't forget me
Tell them it's my fault
How I left you lost in the rain
Apparently, this is just an ending, but
In fact, it's where I begin
Chorus 1
My dreams from the night
In the morning, they don't let go of me
They seek to show me who I am on the inside
You think that you know it all
Hey, don't knock on my door anymore
I'll fly further away to make fire from ashes
To make fire from ashes
To make fire from ashes
Verse 2
I don't want to be in your place
Believe me, I'm not sorry
Or: Trust me, I don't regret it
That I threw you out of my heart
You tried to change me
But I'm not how you hoped
I write my story alone
Apparently, this is just an ending, but
In fact, it's where I begin
Chorus 2
My dreams from the night
In the morning, they don't let go of me
They seek to show me who I am on the inside
You think that you know it all
Hey, don't knock on my door anymore
I'll fly further away to make fire from ashes
To make fire from ashes
To make fire from ashes
Verse 3
Fire from ashes
Days from nights
I'll chase away all the clouds
Like in other times
Fire from ashes
Days from nights
I hope you miss me
Until you can't anymore
Chorus 3
My dreams from the night
In the morning, they don't let go of me
They seek to show me who I am on the inside
You think that you know it all
Hey, don't knock on my door anymore
I'll fly further away to make fire from ashes
To make fire from ashes
To make fire from ashes

SONG MEANING

“Cenușă” invites you to witness a phoenix-style comeback. Over a shimmering pop beat, Romanian singer Roxen faces an ex who blames her for everything, yet she refuses to wear the guilt. Instead, she turns the breakup into rocket fuel, vowing to “make fire from ash” and soar higher than before. The song pulses with self-belief, letting learners feel the spark of picking yourself up, dusting off, and shining brighter.

Roxen flips the idea of the end into a daring new beginning: nocturnal dreams guide her toward who she truly is, and every raindrop and cloud becomes tinder for her rebirth. By pushing away someone who tried to change her, she claims full authorship of her own story—and hopes the ex will miss her “until you can’t anymore.” “Cenușă” is a bold reminder that even when something burns down, the glowing embers can light the path forward.
