Past midnight I sit here
Drinking to forget
And all the darkness
That opposes me
Will it ever fade
And all the stars
That shine so bright
Will they light the further way
And all the sweet things that you’ve said
Will they survive today
And all we see is what we’ve got
What do we’ve got in some other life
All the din disagree
Will it ever fade
To the point of all wishes
Will that be made
Dawn breaks still sitting here
Drinking to forget
And all the darkness has faded
Leaving a sky in red
And all the silence is broken
By some birds singing their songs
About how free they are
Freedom might be strong
And all we see is what we’ve got
What do we’ve got in some other life
