pictures fade in and out as i dig into the recess of your mind
  so if you hold the other hand and i'll hold mine
  as pictures fade in and out as I
    no one can help you but you no one can say anything true
  no one can save you but me i will be the answer that you seek
    if you wait until the smoke has all cleared
  wait until the ashes have blown away
  wait until the fire dies down
  wait until you can feel alive again
    this destiny lies deep inside your heart
  and truth is always waiting where you start
  but pictures places memories hold you down
  'cause they're the only things you've ever known
    no one can help you but you, no one can say anything true
  no one can save you but me i will be the answer that you seek
  if you
  if you wait until the smoke has all cleared
  wait until the ashes have blown away
  wait until the fire dies down
  wait until you can feel alive again
