Ash Songtext
von Arcwelder

They borrow words for thoughts
And steal what they feel
From fools who choose to feel
For every black and white
For every ash to ash
These shades of gray will clash

For every dream there′s a fool to back it up
For every word that's been sized up
The meaning is lacking
Every line that falls
And every breath and every hand that′s holding back
The meaning is lacking

And every vacant hope
A spring to this winter's mind
From hand to man of mind
The heart of hearts will fade
I'm haunted here by this loss
Of what I dreamed it was


For every dream there′s a fool to back it up
For every word that′s been sized up
The meaning is lacking
Every line that falls
And every breath and every hand that's holding back
The meaning is lacking

And how′s it supposed to be right now
I might betray my heart again
And how's it supposed to be right now
I might betray my heart again

Some are yours and some are lost
Ash to ash, but lost is lost
Some of the words are known, I guess
Hope for a sign beyond what′s clear
But every truth will disappear
Some of the words are yours alone

Some are yours and some are lost
Ash to ash, but lost is lost
Some of the words are known, I guess
Hope for a sign beyond what's clear
But every truth will disappear
Some of the words are yours alone
The words are yours alone


And I try to say
That some of what this is
Isn′t everything
