Nova77 – Letras de Dust (Until I'm Nothing)

wind picks up slowly
can’t see two feet in front of me
is it possibly the wind will come and scatter me?
and why do i feel
that i’m losing a part of me?
i cannot seem to hold these pieces’ integrity

all my life, i’ve been searching for something
trying just to hold wind-blown sand between my fingers
all these things are so cold and so empty
the wind blows it all from my hands

i’m a child of dust
i hold in my hands, all that i can, all that i am
the wind blows me away
until there’s nothing here - until there’s nothing here

all i’m offered are
things that burn up so easily
sticks and ashes that come back to devour me
so, why can’t i give You
these gods that are ruling me?
i hold so tight to that which You took so willingly
