Sensing that this is a dark day
I remember when the sun came again
No need to fight the world myself
I have victory built into history
Because I have seen better days
There will be better days
This is a shadow of life lying fallow
Despairing can't find it's place here
Take a token from the past
And you see that nothing lasts
Things keep moving on
And you ask me where is home
Well the clouds have fallen ill
And if yet more rain is spilled
Well, I forgive them
Wash your fears in purest hope
It keeps you cleaner than can soap
Just remember
That the dirt comes from within your living skin.
It's made of everything you eat
Keeps you standing on your feet
There's a price to pay,
But don't dismay,
You'll live.
Because I have seen better days
There will be better days
This is a shadow of life lying fallow
Despairing can't find it's place here
Fearing silence you just might
Find yourself awake at night
Imagining the things that could go wrong
Before too long.
Let the panic slip away,
Don't hold too tightly to this day
Don't crush its life out and
You're sure to find the cure
Sensing that this is a dark day
I remember when the sun came again
No need to fight the world myself
I have victory built into history
Because I have seen better days
There will be better days
This is a shadow of life lying fallow
Despairing can't find it's place here
