I feel the ashes swirl around me
I’m covering my eyes
I’m looking down on dried up soil
Been walking on for miles
Abandoned houses
I’m waiting for a sign of life
I’m waiting for a guiding light
No hills or valleys
And as I walk these roads I find
A wasteland of an empty mind
Why is there no end in sight
As all these years are passing by
Memories of better days
Are slowly fading into grey
I feel the ashes all around me
Covering my lungs
I’m gazing into fallen skies
I’m always on the run
Close to the ruins
The remnants of an empty home
Forgotten people left alone
No roof or shelter
And as I lose myself I find
Reflections of a broken mind
Why is there no end in sight
As all these years are passing by
Memories of better days
Are slowly fading into grey
Why is there no morning light
As all these clouds still paint the sky
Memories of brighter days
Are slowly fading into grey
The seasons change
Their bones they shake
With no place to go
And they still walk alone
They need a change
To rearrange
The pieces of
A world that slowly fades
