Ashes

Folder: 
1998 - 2010

What's with the lie in your pocket

The ashes on your shoes

Do they belong to you

What's become of you

Do you see what I see

Your future at your feet

Only thirteen

Headin down a dark path

Ain't too late to turn back

But for you this is all

That life can be



Ashes movin with the wind

Like the way you have been

Goin places before

You can blink your eyes

Skeletons piled so high

You often wonder why

And its never too early

To say goodbye

But movin with the wind

Like the way you have been

Can only speed up time



Years bein taken away

Cause of the choices you make

Tears are shed

Cause you've caused

So much pain

By my face stays dry

Cause I see the fear

Livin in your eyes

And I'll stand

By your side

Show you all that

Life Can Be

And stop the Ashes

Fallin at your feet
