Night Lyrics

In pursuit of horizons

You passed the world by

Never stopping to look around

Obsessed with the sky

But nearing the end

You looked to reveal

That the pressure was gone in your wheels

Now you're stuck in the gravel

On the side of the road

And you begin to question

Which direction to go

Do you continue onward

In search of a star

Or turn and go back home

After coming so far

You stare at the sunset

The dream you once chased

The flame of ambition

That fueled your life's race

But now that the night's come

The light is now gone

With darkness concealing

The path you are on

In the middle of nowhere

No people in sight

And there's no way of knowing

Your decision is right

As you walk down the highway

You begin to feel

That the dream in your head is not real

While you wander in darkness

With a head full of doubt

You reminisce about headlights

That have long since burnt out

Even were you to stumble

Right back to the known

Who's to say of its safety

Could that ever be home

You stare at the sunset

The dream you once chased

The flame of ambition

That fueled your life's race

But now that the night's come

The light is now gone

With darkness concealing

The path you are on

While the dark might seem unending

Beneath an absent moon

The cold shadows curl around you

And your fate is freshly hewn

Though the black abyss consumes your trusted vision

Your eyes have not forgotten light

I can promise dawn will yet lead on to morning

And the sun will pierce the night

You stare at the sunrise

The dream you still chase

The flame of ambition

That fuels your life's race

And now that the light's come

The night is now gone

With morning revealing

The path you are on
