Amy Ormonde - Burning Ashes

We climbed the highest mountains
and reached for the sky
our spirits ran as one
it was only you and I

our souls flew for so many years
we had all our dreams planned
we had no worries and fears
paradise was so close at hand

we had the world on our side
but the drugs led you astray
when you got stoned and high
you through it all away

you never wanted to listen
that doing drugs was wrong
now death has taken you in
i stand alone for you are gone

its painful to see you go
dont you see you lived a lie
damn it! ! ! why didnt you say no? !
your gone forever now
say good-bye

and pointless addiction
deadly ammunition
wasnt much of a life you led
you got stoned
and you got high
you drugged yourself to death

you were there when i cried
i was there when you strained
but now you left me to die
only your ashes remain.........
