They will all crack and peal away
From the past we must break free

Tragic memories invade
As the ashes cover yesterday

The panic builds up from deep within
From the past we must break free
Purified, I stand before the flames

With the passage of time
As the ashes cover yesterday

Let the storm winds wash them all away
Come to terms with all that tortures me
Come to terms with all that tortures me

Imprisoned by actions of the past
Always thought that the pain would end
Let the storm winds wash them all away
There will be no more room that is left for compromise

Let the storm winds wash them all away
Turn away as you stay hidden behind a twisted grin
To reveal something else
No matter how many layers deep
Tragic memories invade
You try to hide yourself
I will be the only one who is left to decide
Break away from the curse of man's original sin
The subconscious mind
Tragic memories invade
No use holding on

Purified, I stand before the flames
