Days are dragging on
Leaving only their fading marks
Still we're hanging on
To find a reason for it all
-Is this just a whim of mine
-Trusting a new dawn?
Far from view and out of sight
I lock my door, turn off the light
Head for bed to ease my pain
To find my true self once again
That's when I need someone
To turn to and honestly pray
That life should be different tomorrow
Than it was today
Keeping up these days
Demands all my thoughts and toil
Searching my own face
In rivers long since dry
-Is this just a whim of mine
-Trusting a new dawn?
Hasty hours without a pause
Shuffling 'round to find a cause
Too much thought means less to make
Too much worry for my own sake
Far from view and out of sight
I lock my door, turn off the light
Head for bed to ease my pain
To find my true self once again
And I miss the times when
Give and take took an equal part
When joy seemed much closer
And not far from a fearful heart
