Waiting for the Sky to Fall

Distant skies of warm sunlight rise Peering through this second morning rain Your first sign of life after so many tears Be still and listen for what you cannot hear Don't let me live in fear of tomorrow Or drown in a sea of haunting memories Now open your heart Don't burden your soul with what will go wrong But how long before I die? Embrace your life The sun will still rise While you're waiting for the sky to fall Peel away the mask that I wore for years That hid all of my secrets, hopes and fears Bring me hope in tomorrow, and what lies ahead You've awakened my soul- I'll be your voice Don't let me live in fear of tomorrow Or drown in a sea of haunting memories Now open your heart Don't burden your soul with what will go wrong But how long before I die? Embrace your life The sun will rise after all So once and for all Stop waiting for the sky to fall Heal me, release me Scars still remain but Nothing can bring back the shame Shroud me, absolve me A new hope begins today Just a promise away Now open your heart Don't burden your soul with what will go wrong But how long before I die? Embrace your life The sun will rise after all So once and for all Stop waiting for the sky to fall You were waiting, waiting You were waiting So once and for all Stop waiting for the sky to fall
