Lyrics
I still recall it clearly that warm October day
Ashes scattered on the ground, all colours fade to gray
Uncertainty is all around and quiet fills the air
The hope that we were counting on was never really there
There isn’t time to take control so gather what you can
All your life possessions will be carried in your hands
Be grateful for the simple things like life and family
It’s time for us to find a way to build from tragedy
Hey, see the fires swirling in fascinating flames
Hey, the burning of this memory can never be erased
After all the fall out, you carry on with life
Possessions aren’t that valuable, you've come to realize
Anytime you reflect upon the loss and tragedy
The dust will finally settle to reveal the true beauty
