Dark At Dawn - Daybreak Lyrics
As the sky's a flame, he stood high upon that hillOnly him to blame, on his limbs this frozen chillThat calls on him, the glow's beyond these mountainsidesAnd creeps his skin, he prays for sun, he prays for lightNow he fears so deep the second coming of a dayJust to fall asleep, his skin still covered by the hazeThat veils his eyes, and in the crimson light of dawnHis life's demise - a stillborn child there in his arms[Chorus]This son of mine - Take meBroken his eyes - Break meA life for a life - Freeze my heart beneath this new horizon...As the sight grew clear, a sparrow glides from far aboveFor to touch so dear, oh, this tiny child, my loveA lifeblood's leave, as the beam caresses its wingsIt sings the tune, calling lost life from deep within[Chorus]Taking this side for to give him some time - breaks a dayChanging a light is a barter of time - seals the way[Chorus]
