Ashes

By Myself
11-16-09

Ring around a memory
A pocket full of gold
No offer you make can tempt me
The damage is too old

You can keep your gilded cage
Oh yes I remember that song
You can use your empty rage
Now to sing along

I still talk to that girl
The one I used to be
Trapped in your world
Until I set her free

There is much to discuss
But only so many hours in a day
You sure had her lost
But somehow she found a way

Lost for so long
Now ashes, ashes
We all fall down
Fearing what the past is
