whispers from the ashen road

music & text by amarevois

may my breaths be counted
only between your own
‘till we meet again in this hour

this world is illusory
spiritual jewelry

for the maddening crowd
to devour

whispers from the ashen road
what will they speak of ?

the promise of tomorrow's calling
what will we wish for ?

of all that is around us
there’s nothing we are not
and when our breaths be counted
what have we got ?

love and fear propel us into eternal time
yet who among us know
the value of a life ?

whispers from the ashen road
what will they speak of ?

the promise of tomorrow's calling
what will we wish for ?
