New Day

Tell me why

I can't see the sun go down

From my eyes

They won't close, I tell myself I wasn't wrong

For long, forever

In the night

Well, my mind goes to the places

I can't keep

Well, my thoughts ain't straight as I mumble in my sleep

Through the pain and the sweat and the shaking of my knees

Why won't the sun ever rise?

Tell me for yourself

Why does the night take control of my eye?

In your soul

Well, I feel it down below

It's in the stars

Burning brighter than the grinding of your teeth

And the scars and the moon, and the motion underneath

These times I can't erase when I feel it

I see the crashing down of the rain

Maybe someday, someday you'll see

For what I really am

Why won't the sun ever rise?

Tell me for yourself

Why does the night take control of my eye?
