Dust is slipping through my hands,
It's like a fall of tides now controlling my life.
Chased by the wrong decisions I've made
Seeing my life fade.
It isn't fair, not fair at all.
I thought I pleased you but now it's my fall.
Pretending I am doing it right,
But you ignite the flame in the deepest night.

Selfish you you're calling me,
Just remember all the moments I was asking if it's ok.
You're telling me we're all born free,
But I'm confined through these chains,
Why can't you see?
I'm drifting away, watching my bloodflow retain.
Breathing in, breathing out,
But nothing seems to change,
I've got to move on.
Now.

Breaking free and leaving your ashes behind.
Until you're nothing more than dust.
Put you out of my life. You were the wrong one to trust.
It's ashes to ashes and dust to dust.

Slipping through my hands,
Your life is fading away and I can:
Breathe again, live again.
And you're the one who stands there alone in the end.
