Songtext von Ashes

When the world burned I faced the task Of rebuilding what I made I'd raise the sun again I'd bring them through the end And day by day they passed away Right before my eyes Six became a team of five I couldn't help but pass them by Ashes to ashes Dust to dust Honor to glory And iron to rust Hate to bloodshed From rise to fall If I never have to die Am I alive at all? When flames would rise to my allies I'd feel the pain inside I was the victor at a cost With every war a friend was lost On deaf ears fell my cries of hurt As the last one drove insane He turned and went astray Only my own blood to fade away The nightmare began when it all ended My own blood the one I had befriended Ruled in harmony The better side of me But things broke down just when I thought I Had lost everything I could I Let her slip away She turned her back on me
