Life in the Embers Lyrics by Sundowner

Neon Fiction

2013

Today I let go of everything
I looked in the mirror and I saw what was there
I'm a collage of success and defeat
Cut and pasted together over all of these years
Sewn together with lines
From the books that I love
Layer upon layer of faces I've been
There are memories and friends
And the days that are gone
I have always been singing this song
I have always been singing this song
Today I set fire to everything
Tired, so tired of the people I have been
Saw my life in the flames, rebirth in the embers
All the decisions I have made have led me to here
On this site I will build up
In the sweet dust of the ashes
Layer upon layer I'll start over again
So drop me a postcard
From the crooked lines you roam
I'll be writing these letters from home
I'll be writing these letters from home
I'm a collage of success and defeat
Tired, so tired of the people I have been
I looked in the mirror and I saw what was there
All the decisions I have made have led me to here
Today I let go of everything
