From The Ashes

(album: After The War - 2012)

Seven seas and seven wonders
Seven poisons seven blasts
Only bad news for tomorrow
If tomorrow comes at last
Burning bridges and fey valleys
Bleeding rivers and toxic weeds
It's our turn to fire the fuse now
First we'll clean the surface and then we'll sow the seeds

From the ashes of love we will rise again
From this devastated trust and all this mess
From the ruins of love we'll get up again
And our overwhelming hope will do the rest
From the ashes of love we'll rise again

Seven hills and seven deserts
Walls of clouds on frightening skies
Thirsty fields and starving vultures
As a black sun melts the ice
Hearts of stone and lousy liars
From their heads down to their feet
It's our turn to change the rules now
First we'll clean the surface and then we'll sow the seeds

From the ashes of love we will rise again
From this devastated trust and all this mess
From the ruins of love we'll get up again
And our overwhelming hope will do the rest
From the ashes of love we'll rise again

We'll let it rain on all those warriors
And set new rules we won't forget
We'll take the pain from all those warriors
And make forget that mankind's bad

We'll rise again
We'll rise again someday

From the ashes of love we will rise again
From this devastated trust and all this mess
From the ruins of love we'll get up again
And our overwhelming hope will do the rest
From the ashes of love we'll rise again

From the ashes of love
From the ruins of hurt
Form the ashes of love
Like a flower in the dirt

We'll rise again
We'll rise again someday
