Ashes Lyrics - On My Way Here - Clay Aiken

Someone told me 

What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger sets you free 

From all that held you down 

With all my heart I believed the end of burning was a dream deep in me 

When everything went up in flames I still walked away 

Turn around and see what love's done for me 

You would not believe the way I used to be so cold 

Maybe love requires walking through the fire 

To set me free so I can rise up from the ashes 

I was broken, a million pieces left to whole 

I was frozen, my heart left out in the cold 

Looking back I can see how a voice of a reason 

Kept reminding me I was never good enough somehow 

Try to remind me now 

Turn around and see what love's done for me 

You would not believe the way I used to be so cold 

Maybe love requires walking through the fire 

To set me free so I can rise up from the ashes 

Send it up in flames 

Let it light the sky 

Now that I know best 

Found more to life 

Turn around and see what love's done for me 

You would not believe the way I used to be so cold 

Maybe love requires walking through the fire 

To set me free, to set me free 

To set me free so I can rise up from the ashes 

The ashes, rise up from the ashes
