Q&A
From the Ashes Lyrics
My right hand holds matches
My left hand holds my past
I hope the wind catches
And burns it down my past
With my failures and my shame
And wave good-bye to yesterday
As I dance among the flames
Don't try to save me now
Just stand back and wait till the smoke finally passes
And I will rise
From the ashes
From the ashes
From the ashes
For all that I'm losing much more will I gain
The hard part is choosing
To change what needs changed
My step will be much lighter
With these demons off my chest
I'm born a better spirit
And lay the old to rest
Don't try to save me now
Just stand back and wait till the smoke finally passes
And I will rise
From the ashes
From the ashes
From the ashes
I'll walk away stronger
I will be flyin'
Higher and truer
Than I've flown before
My left hand holds my past
I hope the wind catches
And burns it down my past
With my failures and my shame
And wave good-bye to yesterday
As I dance among the flames
Just stand back and wait till the smoke finally passes
And I will rise
From the ashes
From the ashes
From the ashes
The hard part is choosing
To change what needs changed
My step will be much lighter
With these demons off my chest
I'm born a better spirit
And lay the old to rest
Just stand back and wait till the smoke finally passes
And I will rise
From the ashes
From the ashes
From the ashes
I'll walk away stronger
I will be flyin'
Higher and truer
Than I've flown before
