Into the dawn of tomorrow, fade the day.
Take all that I am and throw it all away.
Let all the struggles which I have sought
Be cast aside or by hands, be bought
For hallowed places where I once rested
Burn them down with a heart arrested.
The promise of someday dies on the eve
Where fireflies gather lies no reprieve
And all I was and all that I could have been
Be given back to those childhood dreams.
Sorrow the face of beauty so bright
That stole away into the uncaring night
To torment my soul and shatter me so,
To follow the vision wherever it goes
Be it into the ethereal realm of the dead
Or living but not living, only breathing instead.
The sunshine that smiles once in sometime
Lies broken and dazed, no rhyme
Or pillar of song may bring her back.
Tomorrow, cruel tomorrow, all that I lack.
Loves gone, friends gone and family
Carve their names on a plaque in memory
For that's all that is left. A name.
But engraved with love, all the same.
Like to like, in a book or stone high
My name be carved until when I die
Alone. Always alone and that tragedy
Is simply simplistic and expected of me.
Closing eyes to the world of blood
And death and falling, as none should
To passing; I take the dream I shared
With no one else, a secret prepared
For myself alone and with that set it
Free. Someone else can keep that bit
Of what I was, or what I should have
Been. In everything, given, I gave.
When dawn comes, I won't see
The misty morning or the rosy lee
Or the mountains wreathed in icy shawl
That blows the morning wind to crawl
And rise the sun, haul it up high
On a land that demands, live and die.
A heart with scars in my chest
It beats somehow, it never rests,
Painful beating and painful feeling
Let it lie still for a moment, healing.
But it will never heal nor ever pause
Only drum insistent on the smallest clause
And contract me into a life so bleak
That Gods and alike, can watch me weep.
So watch me weep, so watch me fall
So watch me die for you all;
And when I am gone, there is no tomorrow
And in my heart, only endless sorrow.
