We came back to the desert
Home to us, and home to them
Ever since our return
From all sides condemned

Every inch that we’d give
They’d take hundreds of miles
We just want to exist
But you put our lives on trial

As you light us on fire
And you watch as our embers
fall like rain
I hope that you’re sure
That the ashes of us
will heal your pain

That the ashes of us
will heal your pain

You once were a child
For only numbered days
’Til you were told with a smile
That you would make us go away

Guns put in your hands
As if they were toys
And somehow hide and seek became
Seek and destroy

As you light us on fire
And you watch as our embers
fall like rain
I hope that you’re sure
That the ashes of us
will heal your pain

That the ashes of us
will heal your pain

Today, you fired thousands of rockets
You raped and shot rounds
The living held hostage
The dead raked through the ground

But the people you say you kill for
They still can’t come home
And the land that we once shared
Is safe for no one

As you light us on fire
And you watch as our embers
fall like rain
I hope that you’re sure
That the ashes of us
will heal your pain

As you light us on fire
And you watch as our embers
fall like rain
I hope that you’re sure
That the ashes of us
will heal your pain

That the ashes of us
will heal your pain

Ashes of Us
