Fading With Tomorrow (From My Secret Sin)

Here and now is all we have A chance to tear, a chance to laugh Reach out for something more to grasp At times I could dream upon quiet nights A happy home, Hot chocolate and faded porch lights Don’t cry your tears For they’ll only fade with tomorrow As time leaks, truth speaks Come eye to eye with romance A new face to meet So many peers around me Even out in the clear troubles surround me Please, don’t cry your tears For they will only fade with tomorrow My hours consist of mislead love Late night clubs A few warm hugs, A couple of lonely shoulders with shrugs My peers say there’s nothing I couldn’t conquer Yet my popularity allows loneliness to ware on me Never could defeat my guilty conscience For now it only cares to own me But don’t cry your tears For they’ll only fade with tomorrow So much pressure consumes this life of mine Then again, There I go being selfish and wasting our time I’m wading through the world’s insanity Yet I’m lost in my own misery Stranded tears of thee Would any of you care to see Please don’t cry your tears, For they will only fade with tomorrow I’m so desperate to live long So hard to carry on, when nobody loves you I’m curious, Over the edge are they eager to shove me Say grace from above me Pick me up, dust me off, and hug me In reality it’s alright to dream But above life it’s broken schemes
