Songs Unsung - Ashes of the Phoenix

Just a thought of you still casts a painful curse
and I can feel my soul, so lost and confused, walking further away.
Was this what I've wanted? All along, did I want to escape
the life you have offered, together forever

so lost.. so confused..

And hell has frozen over
all hope has lost the light
Our romance has lost its fire
we no longer belong together

What burns will remain as ash and we can never be the same again
though the ember is still there, with nothing left to burn its left to die
and the wind will never fan the flames to spark it back to life
it will only scatter the ashes further apart

its left.. to die..

And hell has frozen over
All hope has lost the light
Our romance has lost its fire
We no longer belong together

Echoes of an Angel

I drift so lost in my sleep and walk alone in my dreams.
I inhaled the final word I should've said
and held it for so long; I suffocated.
but pain still haunts me even though I'm dead.

I could be lying on the grass tonight
and watching the stars burn out.
I could be sitting alone in the dark
and wanting, so badly, to shout.

the fall was high and the pain is great,
breaking even before kissing the ground,
I knew safety would be a bit too late
so close to insanity; so far from reality.

but I awoke in some hallway;
got drunk and must've walked this far away.
couldn't get up and numb from head to feet,
laughing as I admitted defeat.

then you sang to me; your voice
reverberating through the corridors.
echoes of an angel what filled
the emptiness with resonating colours.
