Shadow of Yesterday
Yesterday is but the ghost of today,
All shades and mystique.
My demons clawing...
Troubles, all buried.
Seemed as though now nothing... distant dreams.
So vivid and clear,
Far from forgotten.
Away I drift into reflection.
Now to cast anchor,
It's the edge of the abyss.
Looks as if time to pay my piper,
As I must resolve the past
Though my coffers empty.
They're bound to refill.
Here is the tune,
To beat a new path;
Stay a moment with me just breathe.
Oh, my darlings fear not,
I see tomorrows light.
Believe in infinite endings for
In the end...
Yesterday is but the ghost of today.
