Hours before you break down
Before you crash
Watch as the clouds drift away
New life is due us
Like the ones
Before you break through
The sun is gone
Watching the flowers that grow
Subtle things that
You may never know
Before you make out
The scents of your own
If not now, then, when
Will you live in
Your dying dream
As you wait for it to begin
And if not now, tell me, when
Will you begin
To shine as bright
As the burning light within
Hours before you break down
Before you crash
What do we always think of
New lovers do us like the ones
Before you break up
Your sense of self
Why do the problems that come
Haunt us for hours
Like the ones before you
But, right now
What harm do they cause
If not now, then, when
Will you live in
Your dying dream
As you wait for it to begin
And if not now, tell me, when
Will you begin
To shine as bright
As the burning light within
