Awaiting The Dawn

Flickering lights

A swollen face

No one knows

How he got here

Those secret fights

Just for a chase

With no shows

What is this fear

You look away but it’s okay

So do I

When I look in the mirror

It’s fine I’ll live another day 

So then why

Cry looking in the mirror 

Those times where hard but are gone

I’m not that man any more

I saw it throughout it all 

I’m here awaiting the dawn

Songs of the birds

Light is in view

Who is he

In my eyesight 

He says my words 

What do I do

Why is he

Filled with such might

He seems so familiar to see

Is he I?

If I do not look backwards

I want that future just for me 

No more lies.

If I do not look backwards

Those times where hard but are gone

I’m not that man any more

I saw it throughout it all 

I’m here awaiting the dawn

You found me in the sunlight

Betrayed me midday

And by dusk you ran off

I wandered time with no sight

With no voice to say

You don’t care about loss

Those times where hard but are gone

I’m not that man any more

I saw it throughout it all 

I’m here awaiting the dawn
