"Dust to Dust" (色のない世界, Iro no nai Sekai?) is a theme from Final Fantasy XIII. Like many other tracks in the game, it features female vocals, evoking a sense of nostalgia and longing for times past.
The vocal part intertwines with the motif of "Blinded By Light", one of the main themes of Final Fantasy XIII, though the overall feel is much slower and wistful. It was composed by Masashi Hamauzu.

Final Fantasy XIII
Edit
In Final Fantasy XIII, "Dust to Dust" plays as the background and battle theme for the area of Oerba. It mirrors the feelings of Oerba Yun Fang and Oerba Dia Vanille as they return to the colorless world of their dead and decaying hometown 500 years after being crystallized by the pity of Etro. It also plays when Fang reveals her past to Lightning in Palumpolum.

- Nothing left to fear, l'Cie
- Cradled in eternity
- Shore of sand, your fate awaits
- Oh surrender in the light
