Ashes

Pain has been a good companion through the rain

It's been pulsing like the blood in my veins

I've been scared to jump into the dark

But I need a clean new start

You telling me you wanna be like a soldier

Minimal chance of closure, survive in the land of the snakes

Like that song; your always in my mind

Shut your mouth, you were just blind

I'm lost, behind me the mess I ​caused

I did it on my own but what's the cost?

When I look back I see all my memories burnt into ashes

Years that will mark our kids with salty, bitter tears

While their forced to face our fears

There will be no way out of it

We blew their chances

We're telling them their gonna be brave soldiers

Putting all the weight on their shoulders

This is the land of the snakes

Like Billy sung in honesty

Everything is constantly fake

We're lost, behind us the mess we caused

We did it on our own but what's the cost?

When we look back we see all our memories burnt into ashes
