Magnus Rising - From the Ashes lyrics

It's not just air, it's life we breathe From these ashes once was seen A whole, a body, a voice, a dream And from these ashes It's not just time, it's life we spend From these ashes once to be From blood, from sweat, from tears, the Red Sea And from these ashes Whoever said "We only die once" never really lived And because of this we remain Merely shadows of our old selves Lay in this fire We will rise again From these remains I remain Dust to dust Oh just succumb (just to come) We are bounded by marble walls Free from ashes still is seen A whole, a body, restraint from dream And free from these ashes... We are no more we hold this flame From these ashes no box to store A man, a woman, a child, a word And from these ashes
