We carved our names in something permanent
Or so we thought back then
Now the wind has worn it down
And nothing can't remember when
You said forever like you meant it
I believed every word
Now I'm standing in the wreckage
Of a promise I once heard
Time keeps moving,
doesn't wait
Doesn't ask if I'm okay
We're just ashes and dust Fading out,
fading fast
Everything I tried to trust Nothing ever lasts
We're just ashes and dust Slipping through my hands
All the things I thought of
rust Gone like footprints in
the sand
I used to see your face so clearly Now it's burning undefined
Photographs can't hold the feeling That I'm losing in my mind
What we had is burning out now Like a fire left alone
And I'm learning how to let go Of the only love I've known
Time keeps moving,
doesn't wait
Doesn't ask if I'm okay
We're just ashes and dust
Fading out, fading fast
Everything I tried to trust Nothing ever lasts
We're just ashes and dust Slipping through my
hands All the things I thought of rust Gone like footprints
in the sand
