Kamelot - Ashes to Ashes lyrics

Ravished from our paradise
A crack in the mirror i know who's to blame
So full of life but paralyzed
Etched on my iris
But, I try not to think of it all

We swore to God in veritas
And burned our skin like it burned our souls
One dealt with grief by causing pain
She hid behind maple and built
Her own fortress of sound
Hear this melody almost forgotten hush

I've been waiting a lifetime to show you
You're returning to heaven like dust to dust
I've been waiting forever to
Witness your fading like ashes to ashes

Forbidden dance on fragile skin
Why do you shine as I suffer in pain?
The greatest scars remain within
Leaving you now with a heart
Black as cardinal sin
Fear this melody almost forgotten

Hush

I've been waiting a lifetime to show you
You're returning to heaven like dust to dust
I've been waiting forever to
Witness your fading like ashes to ashes!

Hate, my solution fate, an illusion

Hush
I've been waiting a lifetime to show you
You're returning to heaven like dust to dust
I've been waiting forever to
Witness your fading like ashes to ashes!

I've been waiting a lifetime to show you
You're returning to heaven like dust to dust
I've been waiting forever to
Witness your fading like ashes to ashes!
