HOLD BACK TOMORROW

 

HOLD BACK TOMORROW

WRITTEN BY

JEFF R HILTON

2023

 

FROM ABOVE TO SEE BELOW

ALL WHITE FROM THE SNOW

THE TREES APPEAR TO SLEEP

WATCHING OVER CANYONS DEEP

I CAN HEAR MY OWN HEARTBEAT 

I LOOK THROUGH THE GLOW OF FIRE

RIGHT INTO MY VERY SOUL 

 

I GUESS I HAD MY CHANCES

THE ANSWERS ELUDE ME

SECLUDE ME FROM THE REST

TURNING FASTER

SWIRLING MOVING

 TOWARDS DISASTER 

HOLD BACK TOMORROW

I CAN'T KEEP ON FIGHTING

I'M NOT GAINING GROUND

I FACE THIS ALL ALONE

THE WEIGHT OF MY WILL

IS INCREASING

TURNING INTO STONE

 

ONCE IN AWHILE

FATE WEARS A SMILE

IF ONLY I COULD SEE ONE NOW

I COULD BREATHE AGAIN

I COULD SING IN THE WARMTH

OF THE SUMMER SUN

KNOW I DID SOMETHING GOOD

TOOK MYSELF 

FROM DEPTHS OF DESPAIR 

GUESS I MAY NEVER KNOW

THAT'S NOT THE WAY ITS GOING

THE LIGHT SLOWLY FADING

THE DARKNESS IS SHOWING

HOLD BACK TOMORROW 

REAL
