Kris Allen - From the Ashes lyrics

I hate it when the light goes from your eyes
And there's nothing I can say
To make it better
If it's true love that's keeping us alive
Could we find a way to
Fight this war together?

Time falls like sand watch it fallin'
Right through our hands

Could we be most afraid of what will save us?
Breakdown to find out what
We're really made of
If we're standing on the edge
Hold on when it crashes
Could we rise up from the ashes?

It's crazy after everything we've planned
How it feels like we are
Never gonna get there
Standing on the bridge, watching it burn
No more yesterday tomorrow's all that matters

Time falls like sand watch it fallin'
Right through our hands, yeah

Could we be most afraid of what will save us?
Breakdown to find out what
We're really made of
If we're standing on the edge
Hold on when it crashes
Could we rise up from the ashes?

You just said you lost your way
Like you've forgotten how to dream awake
But, I know you (I know you) but, I know you
And I know you
Don't be scared, just close your eyes
We don't ever have to say goodbye
Well it's alright, it's alright

Could we be most afraid of what will save us?
Breakdown to find out what
We're really made of
If we're standing on the edge
Hold on when it crashes
Could we rise up from the ashes?
