Ash And Ember

Am I seeing double, am I withdrawn

Depositing lyrics into a love song

Spider weaving webs for a catch that won't come

Am I pulling roses from a dead bush

A soldier running late for the ambush

Ready in the depth for a stone that's long gone

Is it too late?

It's never ending but nevertheless

I'm the first one to second my guess

And the fire in my heart came from ash and ember

And every I step I take, got the devil to repay

I'll never make it out alive, but I won't surrender

Had to take it day by day, had to learn the hard way

Like a phoenix rising up from ash and ember

Ash and ember

Am I reaching out for something that I can't grab

Something infinitely splitting into two halves

Is there something I forgot that I can't remember

Am I swimming in a river that was manmade

Demolishing a road that was just paved

It's like trying to catch a junebug in late December

Is it too late?

It's never ending but nevertheless

I'm the first one to second my guess

And the fire in my heart came from ash and ember

And every I step I take, got the devil to repay

I'll never make it out alive, but I won't surrender

Had to take it day by day, had to learn the hard way

Like a phoenix rising up from ash and ember

Ash and ember

Ash and ember

Have I climbed the ladder to the last rung

Am I simply gonna finish where I started from

Is the future just the past that I'll never outrun

And every I step I take, got the devil to repay

I'll never make it out alive, but I won't surrender

Had to take it day by day, had to feel the heartbreak

Like a phoenix I was born from ash and ember

Ash and ember

Ash and ember

Am I stealing something I could borrow

Is yesterday just waiting for tomorrow
