From The Ashes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
My right hand holds matches
My left holds my past
I hope the wind catches
And burns it down fast
I'm gonna step into the fire
With my failures and my shame
And wave goodbye to yesterday
As I dance among the flames So
Chorus:
Don't try to save me now
Let the walls of my world all burn down
Just stand back and wait 'til 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
Repeat Chorus
I'll walk away stronger
I will be flyin'
Higher and truer
Than I've flown before
My right hand holds matches
My left holds my past
I hope the wind catches
And burns it down fast
