it’s the start of something brand new - it’s the start of the closing line
with the door cracked an inch or two - do i dare set my foot inside?
do i love you then lose you - or do i put my trust in time?
do i let myself refuse to count on a fateful dream of mine?
within me - it tugs on - my heartstrings - and i know
it’s just a sky of silver gray - just a narrow passageway
just a song cut off halfway - just another monday rain
would i spend a week in the heart of the city;
in the center of your heart?
for a flash of fame before i’d lose the game
and be stuck on the outskirts, back at the start
there’s no price i would not pay - for the superlative insured
so i’ll light the candle, hope it does not melt away
but what if patience brings reward?
it’s just a sky of silver gray - just a narrow passageway
just a song cut off halfway - just another monday rain
raining harder now - raining harder now - raining harder now
within me - it tugs on - my heartstrings - my heart sings
this anthem - of misery
is it consequence - or providence - i’m on the fence
of imminence - and nothing to gain - drenched in the monday rain
