Lyrics: Clay Aiken. On My Way Here. Ashes.

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
