Before the Day Begins

What were you waiting for?
What twist of fate?
Whatever you were waiting for
Never came
What were you dreaming of?
What kind of special love?
Each time drawn in like a moth
To the flame
Lying there with your open eyes
And your dying innocence
When you drowned in the sea of life
Did your own one make no sense
What were you hoping for?
What kind of flavor?
Just to know that life could be so sweet
Only to leave a bitter taste
What were you praying for ?
What kind of savior?
Whoever you were waiting for
Never came
Lying there with your open eyes
And your dying innocence
When you drowned in the sea of life
Did your own one make no sense?
Before the day begins
Do you thank your stars or count your sins
Or think of all the finer things
That finally came?
