Life in the Embers Songtext
von Sundowner

Today
I let go of everything
I looked in the mirror
And I saw what was there

I'm a collage
Of success and defeat
Cut and pasted together
Over all of these years

Sewn together with lines
From the books that I love
Layer upon layer of faces I've been
There are memories and friends
And the days that are gone
I have always been singing this song
I have always been singing this song

Today
I set fire to everything
Tired, so tired
Of the people I have been


Saw my life in the flames
Rebirth in the embers
All the decisions I have made
Have led me to here

On this site I will build up
In the sweet dust of the ashes
Layer upon layer I'll start over again
So drop me a postcard
From the crooked lines you roam
I'll be writing these letters from home
I'll be writing these letters from home

I'm a collage
Of success and defeat
Tired, so tired
Of the people I have been
I looked in the mirror
And I saw what was there
All the decisions I have made
Have led me to here

Today
I let go of everything
