Ashes to Ashes.
Of blackness fades from off the soul
That reaches its eternal goal
Unstained by deeper dyes of crime,
Unsullied by the feet of Time,
That trampled on a dusky breast
And slowly crushed it to its rest.
But so, or not, He knoweth best
Who rules the Universe.
That reaches its eternal goal
Unstained by deeper dyes of crime,
Unsullied by the feet of Time,
That trampled on a dusky breast
And slowly crushed it to its rest.
But so, or not, He knoweth best
Who rules the Universe.
