Lyrics
I believed in Kingdom come
I believed in the afterlife or a better future.
I thought we could touch the sun
I thought we could achieve great things or reach high aspirations.
But I'm just a piece of your masterplan
I realize I'm just a small part of your grand scheme or plan.
Are we made of ash
Are we ultimately destined to become nothing more than ashes?
I have seen the devils eyes
I have encountered evil or challenging experiences.
She and I, gonna do the time
Both she and I will face consequences or punishment.
I don't know if its worth
Uncertain if the effort or sacrifice is justified.
All the love you gave me first
Questioning the value of the love you once provided.
Tell me Ash to Dust
Ask me, from ashes to dust, what is the purpose or destination?
Dust to Ash
The cycle of transformation from dust to ash.
Dust to Dust
From dust we come, and to dust, we return.
Ash to Ash
Ash represents both the beginning and end of life.
And losers steal what winners get
Those who lose try to take what winners have achieved.
This plan must fail till you know best
A plan may continue to fail until the best course is known.
The working man will never know
The common worker may not fully understand the impact of wealth.
Just how much his money stole
The extent of corruption or negative influence of money is underestimated.
Tell me I can feel
Ask me, I want to experience or understand.
My right is your wrong
My sense of right may conflict with your sense of wrong.
Oh I believe
Expressing a strong belief or conviction.
One, two
Counting, possibly indicating a transition or change.
It's coming on
Something significant is approaching or happening.
It's coming on
Reinforcement that a significant event is imminent.
Ash to Dust
From ashes to dust, a repetition of the transformative cycle.
(And it's coming on)
The process or event is advancing.
Dust will turn to Ash
Dust will eventually transform into ash.
(And it's coming on)
Reiterating the impending occurrence of a significant event.
Tell me Dust to Dust
Ask me, from dust we come, and to dust, we return.
(And it's coming on)
Emphasizing the approaching transformation from ash to ash.
Ash to Ash
A final acknowledgment of the cyclical nature of existence.
