Here For A Reason
Ashes Remain Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You are not forgotten
You are not alone
You think you′re worthless but you're worth it
And He calls you His own
Made in His image
You were made for more
You think there is no plan, that it′s all by chance
But don't believe that anymore

Every time that you wake up breathing
Every night when you close your eyes
Every day that your heart keeps beating
There's purpose for your life
So don′t give up
Don′t lay down
Just hold on
Don't quit now

Every breath that you take has meaning
You are
Here for a reason
You′re, you're
Here for a reason

If you′ve spent your days
Just getting by
When you feel useless, He can use you
And show you what it means to be alive (alive)

Every time that you wake up breathing
Every night when you close your eyes
Every day that your heart keeps beating
There's purpose for your life
So don′t give up
Don't lay down
Just hold on
Don't quit now

Every breath that you take has meaning
You are
Here for a reason

Every day
Is a gift from above
Don′t throw it away
When it feels like too much, He′ll be there

Every time that you wake up breathing
Every night when you close your eyes
Every day that your heart keeps beating
There's purpose for your life
So don′t give up
Don't lay down
Just hold on
Don′t quit now

Every breath that you take has meaning




You are
Here for a reason

+Tenten For years my soul has scarred itself raw
For internal wisdom and a mind in a war
Personal triumph to personal lost
The selling of morals for the price of their cost

Theses arts of mine wrecked from personal flames
There's nothing to lose, though nothing to gain
For these stories of mine fall on deaf ears
Personal Trauma, hopes and the fears

A baring of soul is not needed these days
For there's more to this world than personal pain
So burn it away and cast it aside
For we all live short on limited time

Cleanse yourself clean before a mental decease
The weight of our baggage makes us crawl on our knees
So leave this behind for it burdens the soul
Nothing is necessary, that's all one need know

Feel the removal of desire and shame
It's the key to rebirth in a world slightly sane
We are what are and our being must breathe
So I leave this behind and try to start something clean

"Every time that you wake up breathing
Every night when you close your eyes

Every day that your heart keeps beating
There's purpose for your life

So don't give up
Don't lay down
Just hold on
Don't quite now

Every breath that you take has meaning

You are
Here for a reason

You're, you're
Here for a reason"

@Kasey Jillian i wish i knew what purpose i have for living right now. i've been kicked out my home within the last year, before that.... i never had my mom's support when i truly needed help. mom has tried so HARD to kill my hope of getting back home, but you can't simply kill an undead soul.
