Angel in the Ashes - Project Aegis

She caught a glimpse of those who wished to sail away

The spectre of a dream to chase a better day

The promise of a brand new start

And she always said the visions left a mark

The remnants of a stain tattooed upon her heart

She watched them as they moved together

Formed in pain, spirits gone

Like armies slain, yet marching on

Legions grow, faces change

Yet after all the chaos, darkness still remains

She's never the same...

One more revolution turn

Watch the madhouse burn

Carry on, carry on

Rising angel in the ashes

Shimmer in the show

Shining in the afterglow

Fire falls from heaven down below

To gaze upon the ones she'd never seen

An architect of life repairing broken dreams

With nothing but the gift of time

She dared to be the first to cross the line

Reflections of a selfless way and altered mind

A past in shadow left so far behind

Behind their eyes

Thrown away like wreckage for some other day

Compromised, to escape

Forgotten no more

Minds of millions wide awake

It's never too late...

One more revolution turn

Watch the madhouse burn

Carry on, carry on

Rising angel in the ashes

Shimmer in the show

Shining in the afterglow

Fire falls from heaven down below

Every life a choice to embrace

Either looking on or turning away

To extend a hand of mercy and grace

And to carry on

Hold the ones that the others denied

And to walk through ashes right by their side

And to be the angel, ever abide

As they carry on

(solo)

One more revolution turn

Watch the madhouse burn

Carry on, carry on

Rising angel in the ashes

Shimmer in the show

Shining in the afterglow

Fire falls from heaven down below
