It was touch and go there for a while
And I didn't know if I'd pull through
The wiring under the board caught fire
And it burned up everything inside

Nothin' left here but a pile of ashes
Gettin' blown all over by the wind
Gotta pick up the pieces that shattered
Gotta get into this thing to win

From the scattered ashes I'm gonna rise
To soar through blazin' summer skies
Ain't gonna dwell on what's behind
Flyin' straight ahead and flyin' high

My mind is swimmin' in a sea of sorrow
And my head is fillin' up with doubt
Gotta stop livin' in tomorrow
Cause I need some time to sort it all out

From the scattered ashes I'm gonna rise
To soar through blazin' summer skies
Ain't gonna dwell on what's behind
Flyin' straight ahead and flyin' high

It was touch and go there for a while
And I didn't know if I'd pull through
The wiring under the board caught fire
And it burned up everything inside

From the scattered ashes I'm gonna rise
To soar through blazin' summer skies
Ain't gonna dwell on what's behind
Flyin' straight ahead and flyin' high

Nothin' left here but a pile of ashes
Gettin' blown all over by the wind
Gotta pick up the pieces that shattered
Gotta get into this thing to win

Ain't gonna dwell on what's behind
From the scattered ashes I'm gonna rise
