Holding Absence
Last of the Evening Light
[Intro]
The light just blinks, the drill drills on
It blinds my eyes until the light is gone
[Verse 1]
Just another day in the dark
Just another day my hopeless heart is bleeding out
When will time run out?
[Chorus]
I know that pain may be simply temporary
But when will the daylight come for me?
[Verse 2]
Just another day in the dark
Just another day my beating heart falls from my mouth
When will time run out?
[Bridge]
We spend our lives trying to chase the sun, but every day it sets
And we're plunged into darkness once again
Misery has a duality
Misery has a duality in me
Just one last question before I leave
Is this terminal, or will I heal?
[Chorus]
I know that pain may be simply temporary
But when will the daylight come for me?
[Outro]
Of all the things in life that are not mine
I solely crave a well mind
I've spent yet another summer night
Questioning if joy is a birth-right
Through all the hardships and the darker times
You try your best just to survive
And when I close my eyes on life in time
I'll see the last of the evening light
The last of the evening light
