Kris Allen - From The Ashes Lyrics






I hate it when the light goes from your eyes
And there's nothing I can say to make it better
If it's true love that's keeping us alive
Could we find a way to fight this war together?

Time falls like sand
Watch it fallin'
Right through our hands

[Chorus:]
Could we be most afraid of what will save us
Breakdown to find out what we're really made of
If we're standing on the edge
Hold on when it crashes
Could we rise up from the ashes

It's crazy after everything we've planned
How it feels like we are never gonna get there
Standing on the bridge, watching it burn
No more yesterday tomorrow's all that matters

Time falls like sand
Watch it fallin'
Right through our hands, yeah

[Chorus]

You just said you lost your way
Like you've forgotten how to dream awake
But I know you (I know you)
But I know you

And I know you
Don't be scared, just close your eyes
We don't ever have to say goodbye
Well it's alright, it's alright

[Chorus]

  9. E.... V....

    @xiaolinshowdownluvr You only got it if you pre-ordered it. Which, in my opinion, is stupid.

  14. E.... V....

    Where can I get this song and "Send Me All Your Angels" to put on my iPod?!!??!!?!? I love them!!!!

  15. c.... ....

    @krisp8888

    is the other one the one he did with chris daughtry??

    send me all your angels.... lovin that one!!

  16. k.... ....

    Such a shame- that his Bonus tracks mark two of his best songs.

  17. I.... ....

    when I grow up..
    I wanna be like kris allen. he's like.. my hero.

  18. S.... R....

    his song is the melodies of truth...

  19. x.... ....

    @connellrocraymond yeah, that's understandable. I like both Chris Daughtry and Kris Allen's music, probably more so than any of the others on American Idol, but we all have our opinion. Lol sorry, it seems like that's all people say "we have our own opinion" but its true. but yeah lol i think they're both great

  20. c.... ....

    @xoxoPrettyNPinkoxox

    opened for daughtry. chris daughtry co-wrote the send me all your angels song which is class. this guy is great, i just dont agree with the comment that this is the best album released from an AI contestant.

  21. x.... ....

    @connellrocraymond just wondering, but how did you hear about Kris, then?

  22. c.... ....

    @kevin6170defiance

    dont get me wrong. I like this guy....Send Me All Your Angels is one of the best songs I've heard all year. But taste aside, he is a log way behind in terms of his explosiveness onto the seen.....the reason being because this album is nowhere near as good as those of the top contestants that have gone before him!!

  23. c.... ....

    @kevin6170defiance
    i'm not doubting that this guy is very good..but why put in the part about this being the best album to arise from an AI contestant. You obviously put that in there because you agree with the "some surveys"!!

    But tbh, this album isn't even close. Being from Ireland, I cant comment on the american charts, but over here, nobody has heard of kris. We have however heard of the likes of Daughtry, David Cook, Kelly Clarkson, Jordin Sparks etc... all with better debut albums!

  24. s.... ....

    As much as I like Live Like You Are Dying, I LOVE this song. The melody is so uplifting and I can listen to it repeatedly without getting sick of it. This should have been the second single! It could be on a movie soundtrack like Twilight or the theme song of a video game.

  25. c.... ....

    love that song! I hope he sings it on his summer tour

  26. x.... ....

    Awesome!

  27. c.... ....

    all his songs are amazing hasn't been a song that I don't like. So happy he won I think his is better then Adam Lamberts but his is allright still. Great song :)

  28. A.... H....

    I'm so mad; the bonus songs aren't on itunes. kris is so great

  29. c.... ....

    this one is definitly missing on my ipod <3

  30. J.... L....

    great song way to go Kris love the whole albem dont wait to long to do another ok...original songs , wonderful lyrics....just amazing!

  31. k.... ....

    Kris' album is extremely diverse. It's one album that combines the styles of many different artists such as the maroon 5 and the script. Love it. I'd expect his next album to be a blast.

    Also, based on some surveys, Kris' album was hailed to be the best album release from any AI contestant, winner or not.

    I'm very happy for Kris and I'm a big fan aside from all the girls who crushes him out there. He inspires me so much with his music and he is my icon.

  32. S.... B....

    this song is so amazing

  33. B.... T....

    the band is so loud... I hardly understand the lyrics...

  34. P.... L....

    Reminds me of No Boundaries. Really like Red Guitar and Send Me Some Angels, and Its Alright. Kris is just getting started, and will soar after he gets more experience. Love his voice, but the band is slamming it out too loud.

  35. M.... S....

    I hope Kris will make it better in other album.. The album just simply, and nice to hear. Nice job...

  36. W.... J....

    any genre suits on his voice

  37. T.... ....

    Kris Allen Is Hott Look Like my boyfriend But Just A hotter version

  38. J.... K....

    DOESN'T HE!?!?! He's so amazing! I'm probably his biggest fan where I live! OMG he's so hawt and adorable, funny, nice Errrr I <3333 hiiiiimmmmmm

  39. s.... ....

    I adore this song. This album. This guy! Seriously. He makes me feel things I didn't know I could feel.<3

  40. B.... ....

    I'm not sure about this... the lyrics and the music, or the way he sings it, don't seem to feel right together. He has a great voice, don't get me wrong, but the sound is generic and empty to me, nothing about it makes me feel anything. The chorus in most of his songs start to bleed together really. This is just my opinion of course, and maybe I'm being to harsh, but I really think his next album will be better then this.

    This song was just all right to me, and it cold have been really amazing.

  41. H.... H....

    @cletiger10 hmm i like lifetime better than send me all your angels and i guess kris did too thats why it ended up as a bonus track
    i really like from the ashes though and i think its a shame it didnt make the album :/

  42. b.... l....

    with most CDs that i listen to, i find that
    there's only about 5 tracks that i will listen too.
    but with this CD, i think i adore every song,
    this album is truly amazing.

  43. L.... R....

    this and send me all your angels are the best songs on the album... sucks that they weren't actually ON the album xD

  44. e.... ....

    Your comment is Hilarious!!!!!!
    Thank You for the laugh!!!!!!!!

    Kris is amazing though, truly!!!!!!!!!!

  45. h.... q....

    sorry i didn't mean to spam this comment! i ment to click thumbs up ;)

  46. K.... ....

    amazing...this and the truth r my favs soo far!!

  47. C.... m....

    Gosh..i would marry this CD if i had an option too xD Words cannot explain how amazing this CD is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  48. T.... ....

    Kris had very good songs all round. The album is so solid. You know that when each song are peoples favourite. He has lots of singles material. Even the bonus tracks are good too.

  49. T.... ....

    This is not written by any Jason. If you don't know ask before you put things up. This was written by KRIS and LINDY ROBINS. they wrote Before we come undone and two others too.

  50. d.... ....

  53. C.... N....

    this is his best song. I can't believe why it's not in the album.
