Dust and Ashes - Acoustic
So I burned all the old days down
On a funeral pyre
And I stood with my arms stretched out
Like a pillar of fire of fire - of fire
In the coals of a wordless sound
I am here to inquire
I need to know tonight
(tonight tonight)
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside - inside
Well I carried it down to the sea
And I held it up higher higher higher
Yeah I fell on my bended knees
And I beckoned the tide - the tide
Oh take this away from me
On your fathoms of brine
'Cause I need to know tonight (tonight tonight tonight)
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside - inside
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
And when I looked in the depths of my hands
I could see I was blind blind blind
As the glow of the day now was wrapped
In a cloak of the night - the night
Now it seems all the answers I had
Are the hardest to find
And I need to know tonight (tonight)
I need to know tonight (tonight tonight tonight)
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside - inside
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside dust to dust
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside - inside
Ooh ooh
Ashes inside
Ashes to ashes inside
Ashes inside
Ooh ooh
On a funeral pyre
And I stood with my arms stretched out
Like a pillar of fire of fire - of fire
In the coals of a wordless sound
I am here to inquire
I need to know tonight
(tonight tonight)
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside - inside
Well I carried it down to the sea
And I held it up higher higher higher
Yeah I fell on my bended knees
And I beckoned the tide - the tide
Oh take this away from me
On your fathoms of brine
'Cause I need to know tonight (tonight tonight tonight)
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside - inside
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
And when I looked in the depths of my hands
I could see I was blind blind blind
As the glow of the day now was wrapped
In a cloak of the night - the night
Now it seems all the answers I had
Are the hardest to find
And I need to know tonight (tonight)
I need to know tonight (tonight tonight tonight)
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside - inside
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside dust to dust
What the dust and the ashes
Have fashioned inside - inside
Ooh ooh
Ashes inside
Ashes to ashes inside
Ashes inside
Ooh ooh
