Ashes to ashes, the birth of the lifeless
We're born from dust and to dust we shall return
The flames were buried and lost beneath the sand
But somewhere among the grains the ashes burn.

Rise up, out of the ashes of the fallen
The embers glow, rekindle the flames
Returning together, we've come back to life
As crows gather around your remains.

We are untouchable, nothing will stop us
Kneel down and pray, then be on your way
Reincarnated and reinstated
Prepare for our eternal reign.

You're deceased, but we rise again
We'll make sure we pay our respects to the dead
Can you hear us in your grave, the home of the brave?
No one can save you now, accept your fate.

These scars in the walls hold a few stories...
Restore them to their former glory.

Ashes to ashes, the birth of the lifeless
We're born from dust and to dust we shall return
The flames were buried and lost beneath the sand
But somewhere among the grains the ashes burn.

It's been an age since I submitted anything.

I fancied submitting something tonight.

So I looked through my book of rhymes for something I could submit.

This is what I found. I want to use this as a song with my band, I had music in mind when I wrote them. I quite like these.

And yes, I borrowed a few lines from a previous deviation ([link]). And yes, I know it was a collab, but the lines I nicked were my own so it's not too bad. I borrowed them because, after a little editing, they fitted perfectly into what I wrote the song about.

Which you're highly unlikely to get. But I give you this very obscure clue:

"Through your plastic attitude...I can see you're nothing but a scared little boy."

Wow, it's gonna be like a game now :)
