walking up the stars to heaven
like stairs though hot beneath my feet
like crystals burning in street corners
one step closer to the ashes soon to be
walking to my balanced fate
like an old and empty gate
like a phoenix, born from fire
one step closer to the ashes soon to be
walking down to hell below me
like salmon flows through water
like silk rushes through your fingers
one step closer to the ashes soon to be
now my destiny is locked, no key
nothing to be found that could possibly rescue me
now i walk the lonely road to the ashes soon to be
now i disappear, and the ashes became me
