Embers all through the night Sleeping the day away Waking to find a different light Wanting another way The fire died before too long The answer lay in ashes Quiet night all through the day Waiting for light to arrive Arching for signs it still exists Hoping it could survive The fire died before too long The answer lay in ashes Endless nights I've laid awake Knowing the way it must end Dreaming of how it was before Wishing to be set free The fire died before too long The answer lay in ashes
