Fallen Ashes of Yesterday
Adam Cory Snyder
[Verse 1]
So helpless in the face of such trouble
Torn asunder
And the fire, the sky is dark
The smoky fog rolls through
[Chorus]
Wind blows past the trees
Blows around me
Once birds soared through the sky
But now they hide
Falling ashes on me
What could never be
A smoke it fills my eyes
What a surprise!
The smell of gasoline
Common to me
Falling ashes on me
How could this ever be?
[Verse 2]
Slowly, we go down to
A place of no return
Seek shelter in Jesus
Before the door is closed
[Chorus]
And so we go, through the open door
In spite of the voice of the world
They will never see
Blinded by their own dream
Time, it's getting close
Thought you should know
There is nowhere left for us go
Falling ashes on me
Fire burns to the sea
