HOLD BACK TOMORROW

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
