Erase the Day

The clock it sneers like a bitter friend

Shadows stretch but they never bend

Footsteps echo down a hollow street

The air is heavy it’s hard to breathe

I wish we could erase the day

Paint the sky a softer gray

Rewrite the sun so it never burned

Erase the day make it unlearned

The trees they whisper secrets lost

Every word comes at a cost

The pavement holds the weight of tears

A trail of time worn down by fears

Close your eyes

Forget the lies

Let it fade let it die

I wish we could erase the day

Paint the sky a softer gray

Rewrite the sun so it never burned

Erase the day make it unlearned

What if the night could steal the past

Turn the sand in the hourglass

What if the stars could sing our pain

Wash the slate with falling rain
