Shorter Days

Clock ticks slow but days rush fast
Lost in dreams that never last
Pillow's soft but my mind's loud
In the quiet I'm not proud
Sunrise creeps but I can't see
Morning's haze is cradling me
Shadows grow but hearts stay dim
I'm sinking deep but I can't swim
Shorter days and longer nights
Slipped away from morning lights
Time dissolves in endless streams
Lost my way in endless dreams
Curtains drawn against the glare
In the stillness thoughts laid bare
Eyes open but I still fade
In the dark I'm not afraid
Shorter days and longer nights
Slipped away from morning lights
Time dissolves in endless streams
Lost my way in endless dreams
Forgotten time in echo's call
Hollow heart prepares to fall
Nights devour what days deny
In this void I learn to lie
Forgotten time in echo's call
Hollow heart prepares to fall
Nights devour what days deny
In this void I learn to lie
