Ashes To Ashes

by Katy Nicholson   Jan 21, 2008


Ashes to ashes, blood to fire.
People rarely get what they desire.
You don't need love to make things fair.
More than likely, it won't be there.

You should always rely on yourself.
Learn to trust nobody else.
You need to think, to pass the time.
It's what it takes to make one rhyme.

Even though life's yours to learn.
It could always take a wrong turn.
Someone's dreams are full of shame.
While another's is just a game.

The decision is yours to decide.
When someone's heart and soul colide.
Supporting the world's lies and truth.
It's whatever makes it you.

Ashes to ashes, blood to fire.
Evidence is the twisted liar.
You can only choose your fate.
To live or to die, it'll have to wait.
