Ashes to Ashes
作词：Steve Earle
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
A long time ago before the ice and the snow
Lived giants who walked this land
Each step they took, the mighty mountains shook
Trees took a knee and the sea rolled in
Then one day they say that the sky gave way
Death rained down, it made a terrible sound
There's fire everywhere and nothin' was spared
That walked on the land or flew through the air
And when all was over
The slate wiped clean with a touch
And 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 dust
And then the 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, ain't no holdin' down'
And he crowned himself king, now no one remembers his name
But the seed that he sowed took the show on the road

There's blood on their hands and a plague on this land
They drew a line in the sand and made their last stand
They said, 'God made us in his image
It's in God that we trust'
Asked about the men that had died by their hands
They just said, 'Ashes to ashes and dust to dust'
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Now, nobody lives forever
Nothin' stands the test of time
Heard 'em say, 'Never say never'
But it's always best to keep it in mind
Every tower ever built tumbles
No matter how strong, no matter how tall
Someday even great walls will crumble
Every idol ever raised falls
And someday even man's best laid plans
Lie twisted, covered in rust
When we've done all that we can but it slipped through our hands
Now it's ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
