Waking up, in the world I cast aside
I seek the solace I left behind
Hear the echoes of the moonlight

Walking down the broadway, stopped in time
Will city streetlights pantomime?
See the searing, blistering white

Do you think that even the worst can change?
And if they did, would you think it strange?
Is it better to have fortune come and favor you
Or break the sky when sin would savor you?
Will I live to see tomorrow?

All the colours of the town had lost their touch
And the flowers don't make me feel much
Nothing greets me but the echo

Can the rains that pour down nurture me
Let me return to apogee
Loosened grip, for me to let go

Do you think that even the worst can change?
And if they did, would you think it strange?
Just how much must I abandon to appease you
To make you smile and to please you?
Will I live to see tomorrow?
Do you think of how far you've all come?
From when you lay there, lame and numb?
Did you ever think to realize the turning gear
The everlasting, haunting afteryear?
I'm alive to see tomorrow

From the ruins and the ash, I set my course
With unrelenting, mighty force
In the visions I remember

From the distance I see pearly gates
My trials done, heaven awaits
I will reignite the ember

Did you think that through it all, I could change?
And since I did, did you think it strange?
Time will never pause itself to let the evil fly
Arise, the self, and let upheaval die
I have lived to see tomorrow

I have lived to see tomorrow
I have lived to see tomorrow
I have lived to see tomorrow
Back to square one, left in sorrow
