dust ashes

frustrated that everything is complicated
only where I have fallen, you've taken
and I hate your thieving touch upon my skin
stealing my best elements, draining me

and when I query your theft you deny it
you give me back empty pieces so I go on
what will you do when it's all gone
there's never been a hero to save us

no divinity to purify what you've tainted
we're denied rebirth, so we can't try again
if we kill love, we have only it's twin
and I cannot bear to love hate's teachings

but still you reach for the final bit
and I defend with my flawed heart's song
echoing your sins, your twisted wrongs
hear me sing...

...ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
