Another song.

I actually _started_ writing this on LJ. My 'Keyboard Confessionals' post, as i recall. This is the end result.


What the Morning Brings

The sun has risen, and I feel a little better, a little paler, a little colder
and as the day goes on I'm sure I'll feel or I'll wish I was older
because it's very seldom that answers follow in the wake of light
just sixteen more hours of waiting before we're plunged back into night
and I know I wish I hope I could find a way to stop asking myself these things
but until I can I'll have to settle for seeing what the morning brings.

And I could never sleep knowing you are near
I could never sublimate an irrational fear
I could never stop asking myself
Why I have to care
And I could never get an answer
It’s more than I could bear-

The sun has risen and I’ve never come closer to knowing something like what the truth might be,
And as the day goes on I’ll feel a little less sure of you and me,
Because it’s very seldom that you make me doubt my expectations
Just sixteen hours of backsliding we’re back to our old relations
And I know I dream I scream aloud for closure of a much more healthy type,
But before I know if I can get it, I will have to wait for tonight.

And I could never sleep knowing you are near
I could never sublimate an irrational fear
I could never stop asking myself
Why I have to care
And I could never get an answer
It’s more than I could bear-

And I could never sleep knowing you are near
I could never sublimate an irrational fear
I could never stop asking myself
Why I have to care
And I could never get an answer
It’s more than I could bear-

The sun has risen, and I feel a little better, a little paler, a little colder
and I know I wish I hope I could find a way to stop asking myself these things
but until I can I'll have to settle for seeing what the morning brings.

really? the rhythm on this one is incredibly fucked up. I like my first verse a lot, but the rest I was iffy about.

you, the writer, are most critical, but true beauty is seen from the outside in.
