Ashes To Ashes

Ashes to ashes Dust to dust Life may be lost In a single wind gust The question is What is the next level Questions number far more than answers Is there really a devil Is there really a god These are questions mankind has been Asking since the beginning Some say it is a sin To question reality Yet should sin be labeled Those who have not found the road To a power only known in fable Mythic stories and tales Portray the snake to be evil Yet the good Is that of the eagle Evil is creation That of the mind Yet the fiendish May only prevail If faith shall fail Light is everywhere One just must know where to look Dark may be Illuminated by the good Yet light may not Be darkened by the bad Only when the clouds Are up in the sky Shall light dim At the sight of the eye There is one thing Good shall remain throughout Only if one believes Beyond any doubt
