When Tomorrow Fades Lyrics

I see him standing there, oh so fine,

But in my mind, I know he ain't mine.

I've been thinking 'bout tomorrow,

thinking it's the day,

But tomorrow's a tease that just slips away.

I'm caught in the shadows where cowards hide,

But hell, I'm tired of being pushed aside.

Every minute's ticking, like a bomb about to blow,

But I'm stuck in this silence, like a fuckin no-show.

When tomorrow fades, and the moment's gone,

I'm left here wondering, what the hell went wrong.

Why did I wait, why did I hesitate?

Now I'm chasing dreams that came too late.

The clock's ticking louder, it's laughing in my face, ha!

Every heartbeat's pounding, can't keep up the pace.

But I'm trapped in the "maybe," stuck in "not today,"

Hoping that tomorrow's gonna save the day.

I watch the hours roll, like a train off the track,

Wishing I had the guts to take it all back.

But fear's a prison, and I hold the damn key,

It's time to break out, time to set my ass free.

When tomorrow fades, and the moment's gone,

I'm left here wondering, what the hell went wrong.

Why did I wait, why did I hesitate?

Now I'm chasing dreams that came too late.

In the dead of night, those stars just mockin,

They see me waiting, like a clock tick tockin.

I know tomorrow's just another lie,

But what if he's gone, what if I never try?

When tomorrow fades, and the moment's gone,

I'm left here wondering, what the hell went wrong.

Why did I wait, why did I hesitate?

Now I'm chasing dreams that came too late.

Oh, I feel him in-between my wake

Gotta find my fire, for my own damn sake.

Tomorrow's just a shadow, a fleeting game,

But today's my shot, yeah!

To stake my claim.

Oh, stake my claim.

Yeah Lord I'm stakin it.

Yes, I'm takin it.
