Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Ashes to ashes, dust to dustA long time ago before the ice and the snow Giants walked this land each step they took The mighty mountains shook and the trees took A knee and the seas rolled inThen one day they say the sky gave way And death rained down, and made a terrible sound There was fire everywhere and nothin' was spared That walked on the land or flew through the airWhen all was over the slate wiped clean with a touch There God stood and He saw it was good And He said, "Ashes to ashes and dust to dust"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Ashes to ashes, dust to dustThe sea gave birth and it crawled up on the dirt And stood up and took a look around Said, "I'm the next big thing and the gift that I bring Comes directly from God, so there ain't no holdin' me down"So he crowned himself king now no one remembers his name But the seed that he sowed took the show on the road There was blood on their hands and a plague on the land They drew a line in the sand and made their last standGod made us in His image and it's in God that we trust When asked about the men that had died by their hands They said, "Ashes to ashes and dust to dust"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Ashes to ashes, dust to dustNow, nobody lives forever nothin' stands the test of time Oh, you heard 'em say, "Never say never" But it's always best to keep it in mind that every tower ever built tumbles And no matter how strong, no matter how tallSomeday even great walls will crumble and every idol ever raised falls Someday even man's best laid plans will lie twisted and covered in rust We've done all that we can but it slipped through our hands And it's ashes to ashes and dust to dustAshes to ashes, dust to dust Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
