Before Sunrise
I see a shadow of death in your eyes
And I can tell that you already know
You will have to go
Before sunrise
And in this darkness we wait for the end
So much to say but we choose to reflect
Time to recollect
You will transcend
Your breath of life is now passing away
And we embrace every moment in time
We hear midnight chime
Our hopes decay
There is a sense of delusion in the air
And I feel sick since I’m still holding on
Much too soon you’ll be gone
I fear despair
Your soul is ready to fly to the stars
You will go back to the source of all life
I am twisting the knife
And counting scars
You close your eyes and the night darkens more
This is the first step into the unknown
And I am left all alone
Shaken to the core
I look at you and I tremble within
You want to leave now and I understand
You let go of my hand
We cannot win
I guess you are now a part of the sky
Much too far away but still by my side
With your strength I will ride
Until I die
I see the sun warming up a new day
And hope is rising in the morning light
When black turns into white
Fears fade away
And I will always remember your love
Your watchful spirit will help me to thrive
You will keep me alive
From way above
