Ash And Ember - Augustana
Is it too late?
Am I seeing double in my way, drawn
Depositing lyrics into a love song
The spider weaving webs for a catch that won't come
Am I peeling roses from a dead bush
The soldier running late for the ambush
Readying the deck for a storm that's long-gone
(Is it too late)
Is it too late,
It's never ending but never the less Is it too late
The first one to second my guess
And the fire in my heart came from ash and ember
And every step I take, got the devil to repel
If I make it out alive, but I won't surrender
And to take it day by day, had to learn the hard way
Like a phoenix rising up, from ash and ember
ash and ember
Am I reaching out for something that I can't grab
Something infinitely splitting into two halves
Is there something I forgot that I can't remember
Am I swimming in a river that was man-made
Demolishing a road that was just paved
It's like trying to catch a June-bug in late December
Is it too late?
It's never ending, but never the less Is it too late?
The first one to second my guess
And the fire in my heart came from ash and ember
And every step I take, got the devil to repel
If I make it out alive, but I won't surrender
And to take it day by day, had to learn the hard way
Like a phoenix rising up, from ash and ember
ash and ember ash and ember
Have I climbed the ladder to the next room
Am I simply gonna finish where I started from
Is the future just the past that I'll never ever know,
YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH!
And every step I take, got the devil to repel
If I make it out alive but I won't surrender
And to take it day by day, had to feel the heartbreak
Like a phoenix I was born, from ash and ember
ash and ember ash and ember
Am I stealing something I could borrow
Is yesturday just waiting for tomorrow
