Ashes To Dust

Tell me darling,
What do you see?
Every time that
You look at me?
Do you see
Something good for us?
Or like this world,
Do we turn to dust?

What kind of chance
Do we stand?
(There is nothing left inside.)
In this world of man?
(There's nothing to do but hide.)

If the door of happiness
Opened up.
How long do you think
Before it's shut?
And if love grew for
The two of us.
How long before
One of us is cut?

What kind of chance
Do we stand?
(There is nothing left inside.)
In this world of man?
(There's nothing to do but hide.)

There is no cure
For broken hearts,
So why should we
Risk everything again?
I know what comes
From love that's shunned,
It burns my eyes
Just thinking of the pain.

You seen unsure
And so do I,
So why should we
Even try?
I don't understand
Why it's so hard
To walk away from you.

What kind of chance
Do we stand?
(There is nothing left inside.)
In this world of man?
(There's nothing to do but hide.)

Tell me darling,
What do you see?
Every time that
You look at me?
Do you see
Something good for us?
Or like this world,
Do we turn to dust?
