If tomorrow

(When silence falls and the shadows creep,
The man in the mirror’s not the one I keep.)


Verse 

If tomorrow stayed away,
Would I rise and face the blazing day?
Half my life in shadows, chasing ghosts,
Half in lies to those I needed most.
I’ve loved too wild, lost more than I planned,
Clutching mistakes like ashes in my hand.

Chorus

Would I be proud of the life I’ve made,
Or haunted by the bridges I let fade?
If the sun went dark at the end of the day
Would I beg for one more chance to change?
If tomorrow… stayed away

Verse 

There’s a boy from the past, still calling my name,
Begging me to rise, but I stay the same.
The man I am now Is wondering why
I bite back the tears when I need to cry.

Kindness I felt but never let flow,
Words on my lips I was too scared to show.
Sometimes I wonder if a softer heart
Might have saved someone from falling apart.


Chorus 

Would I be proud of the life I’ve made,
Or haunted by the bridges I let fade?
If the sun went dark at the end of the day,
Would I beg for one more chance to change?
If tomorrow… stayed away!
If tomorrow… stayed away!

Bridge 

Maybe heaven isn’t far above,
Maybe it’s the forgiveness buried deep in love.
Redemption’s whisper calls from within,
When you face yourself and the night 

Final chorus

Would I be proud of the life I’ve made,
Or haunted by the bridges I let fade?
If the light went out and the world turned gray,
Could I lay it all down unafraid?
If tomorrow… stayed away!

[Outro]

If tomorrow stayed away…
If tomorrow stayed away…
