Before the Last Sunrise

The night is fading slowly, and the quiet feels like truth

I spent my days in circles, always running, never you

I chased a world of shadows, thinking time was on my side

But every sunrise wasted cuts a little more inside

I thought I'd have forever

But forever came too fast

Before the last sunrise

Hold the ones you love a little closer

Speak the words you save for later

There may be no later left

Before the last sunrise

Don't let the moments slip like water

Live the life you keep postponing

While there's still a dawn to catch

I see the empty spaces where your laughter used to be

I filled my hands with hours, but the hours emptied me

The road behind is quiet, all the noise begins to fade

And now the truth is simple: I would give it all for one more day

I always thought tomorrow

Would come to save my plans

Before the last sunrise

Hold the ones you love a little closer

Speak the words you save for later

There may be no later left

Before the last sunrise

Don't let the moments slip like water

Live the life you keep postponing

While there's still a dawn to catch

If I could turn the clocks back

I'd choose you every time

But time is not returning

So let these words be mine

Before the last sunrise

Love the ones who stand beside you

Say the truth you fear to utter

Don't let silence be your end

Before the last sunrise

Hold their hands a little longer

Live the life you meant to live

Before the light goes out again
