Lost Ashes

Everything is mess, infinite loop

Starving for a little hope
Looking happy, with a dying soul

None asked you what is wrong

Can’t stay any more strong?

Can’t find where you belong?

Wondering, trying, losing hope…

Have been oohhh so long?

Ya Allah, Show me the way

Ya Allah, I’ve nothing to say

Every light is fading away

Darkening your sight, killing your sway

You don’t know the shooter

But you know you’re the prey

When your ashes fly away

When you’d rather die than just stay

Life is an ongoing play

You can’t stop or even replay

Ya Allah, Show me the way

Ya Allah, I’ve nothing to say

When the screen turns black

When your dreams go wrack

When your palace becomes a shack

Everything in pieces, no more stacks

When your faith becomes in doubt

When the moans become your sound

When your eyes can't realize

Except the fog all around

Ya Allah, Show me the way

Ya Allah, I’ve nothing to say

When the roads are all cut

All the doors have been shut

Seems to be late... seems to be hard

To save ... your happiness slot

When you’re totally missing light

Just Remember who stands behind

Controlling, watching, caring about

his people every day and night
