There's Ashes In My Village


Ashes in My Village

This is another one o' those songs that came to me in a dream - actually, both the A and B phrases did, and I put 'em together to make a nice little ditty about hopeless despair. 

The lyrics are:


There's ashes in my village, my village, my village
There's ashes in my village

I want to be there

My village is burning down to the ground, and I
Want to be there; I want to save the town, but I'm
Also aware that if I am around, we still
Don't have a prayer, and that makes me feel down
Sadness is looming around, and I found
Gladness will never in habit this town
Burnt down, broken and confused, how'd we lose
Everything? This is not the live that we'd choose

There's ashes in my village, my village, my village
There's ashes in my village

I want to be there
