lyrics

When did living for the moment turn into living for tomorrow?
And when tomorrow becomes today, then what's left to live for?

"A day without any pain is a day that is well spent."
Infinite lies for a finite life
When no days can hold pain, then what can days of happiness hold?
without the dark, light would have never been seen

Maybe I don't need to hold on forever
If I can run for just another minute, I don't need to stand
If I can walk for just another day, I don't need to run
If I can breathe for another second, I don't need to lose hope

When tomorrow is the same as yesterday
What's the true meaning of "progress"?
With risk comes mistakes, I know
But when no days hold pain, then what can hope hold?

When I close my eyes, I see the past unfolding on my eyelids
Vague feelings dance in uncertainty
Captivating fantasies steal me from reality
But what lies beyond surges in to awaken me

In the dark, the painful memories won't fade
But I can see a way to tomorrow; I know I have no choice
The one last thing that lies within my leftover power
My now opened eyes can finally see

When tomorrow is the same as yesterday
What's the true meaning to "living"?
With risk comes mistakes, I know
But if I lose nothing today, what can I save tomorrow?

That which can't be said with words is stronger than fear
"A day towards a more hopeful dawn is a day that's well spent."

The earth has seen billions of years go by
Yet there's never been two of the same
I've seen millions of seconds go by
Yet there's never been two of the same

When tomorrow is the same as yesterday
What's the true meaning of "progress"?
With risk comes mistakes, I know
But when no days hold pain, then what can hope hold?

They say you can slow time to see all today
Or you can shut your eyes and see nothing at all
Today will never happen again
The choice to see it for what it is lies with you
