Tomorrow, like a distant sun That you are hurtling towards Only to find that when you get there It’s not as hot as you imagined Sometimes it’s burnt out And the light you see is the echo Of a million miles of your own false hope
Suns burn out slowly though You could still have time to find your tomorrow But you cannot move at the speed of light Weighed down as you are by doubt Dreaming is not moving forward You cannot distinguish ground from sky With your eyes closed Stop dreaming, open your eyes Find that dying light And hold on.
