AS THE ASHES COME DOWN

BY JAY WELLER

 

THERE COME A BEAST

THAT RISE FROM THE SAND

AND A FRESH FACED KING

FROM AN ANCIENT ISLAND

 

AS THE ASHES COME DOWN

A GLOWING WHITE SNOW

A BILLION MORE GONE

JUST AN HOUR AGO

 

AS THE ASHES COME DOWN

A GLOWING WHITE SNOW

A BILLION MORE GONE

JUST AN HOUR AGO

 

ANOTHER KING COME

STERN FACED AND BOLD

ANOTHER THAT SWINGS

A SWORD MADE OF GOLD

 

AS THE ASHES COME DOWN

A GLOWING WHITE SNOW

A BILLION MORE GONE

JUST AN HOUR AGO
