Make it Write Pray for the Sunrise
You sit in the darkness on a wooden bench on a moonlit night. No one left to show you what's wrong and what's right.
She's taught you your tricks and got you through all your years. But now you're alone and you've got to face all your fears.
Like a shadow you perch on the outer edge just out of reach. You hide yourself behind stone walls that no one can breach.
You search all around hoping to find someone who's just like you. You call your name and you listen, but you hear nothing new.
You shed but one droplet of blood just like a tear. You hold yourself and look around; there's nothing to fear.
Like a frightened mouse you scurry through deep, dark holes. Center stage is set, but you're playing all the roles.
You cling to your past as if it were a shining star. But it fades away into nothing leaving you with your pounding heart.
You close your eyes and force back the tears that threaten to flow. They've tried to tell you again and again, but still you don't know.
Though she's gone and left you with a smile and a kiss, you see your mother crying on a bench... just like this.... And you pray for the sunrise. |
