The morning rise is failing to compromise
As the chains keep bones bound to sleep
Fall back to the distant place that keeps the mind in peace
And I see you walk into the scene, set the room at ease
Until it all just fades away…..

Slowly crawl to the eggshells to be made
Hard to lift the pans when the body feels like clay
And the air is cold as the frozen pines covered in white
Every breath consumed, keeps the lungs at ease
Until it all just stays the same…..

And it all comes back it feels so close to me
These shaky hands reach out to empty memories
I hear your cries pushing needles through my eyes
Blinding all that I can see, fakes the mind at ease
Until it all just shakes away…..

Make way to outside where the engine runs on idle
Let the wheel and peddle control the pavement
Don’t know which direction or where to go
As the sun shines bright, puts the road at ease
Until it all just stays away…..

Pull into the gravel driveway park next to the port
Walk through the rainwater into the icy  shore
Stare across to all the bright lights where the fire burns
As I start to slip away, broken promises at ease
Until it all walks away…..

Step into the bourbon filled room amongst friends
Glasses go around praising good times and amends
There is no regrets to be heard when we smile
Everything feels ok, the future is at ease
Until it all slips away…..
Until I lose tomorrow today…..
