Ashes Lyrics by Ryan Loftus

Wages of Fear

2017

I use my hatred to destroy the self
Through this pain I will join the collective

I long for a chance for hope
To see more than the Ashes

Beyond cremation, my memories are a corpse
When I said goodbye, did I destroy the truth?

I wait for the pain to come
And wash away the embers and ashes
My tears are the rain carried
By my words to the ocean

Hold onto the hope of solace
That my wages are more than the ashes
