Lyrics
Daylight
And so another chance has come and passed
the opportunity could be the last
you'd talk yourself out of a room of gold
the reasons why I do not seem to hold
just take the chance that stands before you now
don't let yourself get lost inside your mind
Every horse you're gifted you look it right in the mouth
you search, you strive, you try to find anyway out
instead of taking things they way that they are
you stop yourself before you get too far
In the daylight you can't hide away
from all the indecisions you have made
when the twilight comes and you look upon your day
I hope you took the chances that were placed upon your plate
cause you don't know when their coming round again
and I will hope you start to live again
in the daylight
You sit and listen to the raven quoth nevermore
instead of getting up and walking right out the door
Don't let the fear take over yourself
just let the light shine through everyday
Don't hold yourself back from the things you are afraid
Embrace your life don't let it pass away
Just take the chance you are given everyday
It's time to change your ways
it's time to start again
When the twilight comes and you look upon your day
I hope you took the chances that were placed upon your plate
cause you don't know when their coming round again
and I will hope you start to live again
in the daylight
