In the Ash of Gold
Pieter Frankefort
You came back into my life
Expecting what?
For the years have passed
Gold turned to ash
The sorrow I have seen
The clock's undone my deeds
This neverending fight
Is it on both sides?
These golden memories
Surpressed inside of me
Tear these walls down
What do you expect of me?
Surely this you could foresee
Empty words
And empty signs
Am I this to believe?
In the ash of gold
The shape of you and me
When judgement day
It came for me
No more light
That I could see
The firmament
It grew so black
What I'd had done
To get it back
See the scars
Left behind
Hear the patter
Of the rain
Feel the ash
Getting warm
It's burning bright
It lights the night
Empty words
And empty signs
Am I this to believe?
In the ash of gold
The shape of you and me
