Song | From The Ashes |
Artist | Martina McBride |
Album | Emotion |
Written:Hillary Lindsey/Austin Cunningham | |
My right hand holds matches | |
My left holds my past | |
I hope the wind catches | |
And burns it down fast | |
I'm gonna step into the fire | |
With my failures and my shame | |
And wave goodbye to yesterday | |
As I dance among the flames So | |
Chorus: | |
Don't try to save me now | |
Let the walls of my world all burn down | |
Just stand back and wait 'til the smoke finally passes | |
And I will rise | |
From the ashes | |
From the ashes | |
From the ashes | |
For all that I'm losing | |
Much more will I gain | |
The hard part is choosing | |
To change what needs changed | |
My step will be much lighter | |
With these demons off my chest | |
I'm born a better spirit | |
And lay the old to rest | |
Repeat Chorus | |
I'll walk away stronger | |
I will be flyin' | |
Higher and truer | |
Than I've flown before | |
My right hand holds matches | |
My left holds my past | |
I hope the wind catches | |
And burns it down fast |
