Ashes

My world is falling apart Crashing in an everlasting flame But somewhere deep in my heart I know I've gotta step up and play the game I don't want them to stare I want to all that I can do Because nobody's aware Just how much I wish you knew Disappearing like ashes Just a moment when the world is dark As my universe crashes I try to make my mark To rise above the ashes To a place where they understand As my universe crashes I'll reach to take your hands My thoughts seem hidden away Rising to find it has restraints I only wish you would stay You're always willing to drop mistakes We will just let them stare We need to show what strength we hold Make everybody aware We're independent and we're bold Disappearing like ashes Just a moment when the world is dark As my universe crashes I try to make my mark To rise above the ashes To a place where they understand As my universe crashes I'll reach to take your hands
