From the Ashes

Scattered across the sky ashes of a once burning bright sun of hope Lost amongst the pieces riches of a once golden future Stripped down once whole This mind can't ponder it's next move Fell between the cracks of imagination into the depths of reality Lost and alone but yet together This hardship has grown to monster proportions Clawing at our heart strings so the tune is no longer perfect The song seems finished The chorus repeated a miserable failure plays loud Need a harp to simmer the flames of depression A beautiful melody of faith whispers in like warm breezes Crazy i feel without a thought Time to stand strong Time to follow through Time to believe We deserve more than ashes of what ifs and embers of fear to light the dark sky Take us back to the place we love Take us back to the soap bowl of filimer Let us see we will succeed This is our last chance A chosen dream we feel can come true Let's believe it to be and it shall from the ashes our rose will grow.
