Tears Of Ashes

Can you hear me?

I am screaming. I am screaming

Can you hear me?

Blood is dripping. Nails are piercing

Thorns are ripping. Ripping through

I see the tragedy

It comes to me

In bloody... Broken dreams

You always loved me

Never knew these

Ironies of living free

I live for you (I'd die for you)

I live for you (I'd die for you)

I live for you (I'd die for you)

I live for you

Can you hear me when I'm screaming?

I can hear your voice it's weeping

You cried out, when I was needing

I was nothing, you comfort me

Now I see that you are here for me to lean on

Though I know what hate can do

We shed tears of ashes for you

Death only began the truth

You cry for me

And died for me

I try so hard to be like you

Can you hear me when I'm screaming?

I can hear your voice it's weeping

You cried out, when I was needing

I was nothing, you comfort me

Can you hear me when I'm screaming?

I can hear your voice it's weeping

You cried out, when I was needing

I was nothing, you comfort me

You were changing me, you were holding

I won't be afraid to stand alone now

Oh no. Can't you see? What it means to me, for me, to me

Take my hand. So I'll stand. Set me free. You will see

What it means, to live and be able to breath

(This blood on my dirty sleeve

Is drying and can't be washed from me)

I never thought that you could abandon me

I will fight the day that you mentioned that you have to die for me

To say that you could never run away from saving me

From what I've made you do for me now

I'll fight for you. I'd die for you. My life for you. Now it's time

I won't forget your name. No more am I afraid... No
