Tomorrow Was Just a Day Ahead of Us
if the clouds cast shadows over doubts in your mind,
and you find that place in your head where your secrets are spoken aloud,
if love and misery finally separate their ugly heads,
put this fairytale to bed and pull the covers over our pasts,
let happiness shine through the gap in the window,
and cover our memories in every emotion we miss,
when silence is no longer a virtue but a promise to never speak of what came before,
and locked draws hold on tight to everything within.
if heaven and hell collide and leave us picking up the pieces
and noah leaves us stranded as the tide comes rushing in,
I will hold you close and whisper 'romance never dies',
wipe the tears from your eyes and share one last sweet kiss,
take our bow leave the stage and draw the curtain on suburbias last real shot at hope,
the gutter holds our memories, fears and stories all scribbled out on a post it note.
