My home, I don't need it
Like a shadow, on the hill
Your throne, is defeated
As your guardians, stand still

Momma always told me
Be careful with your will

I am the dust, I am the ash
I am the dust, I am the ash

My hope, is still bleeding
Like you never thought, it would still
From the tower, I'm gonna tell you
Between the cup and lip, it shall spill

Momma always told me
Be sure it's dead when you kill

I am the dust, I am the ash
I am the dust, I am the ash

Momma always told me
If you wish it be then it will

I am the dust, I am the ash

You're bold, incognito
Like a prophet, on a bill
You sold, all our freedom
As our sacrament, becomes ill
Momma always told me
The truth is a bitter pill

you are the dust, you are the ash
you are the dust, you are the ash
