Cold Grey Dawn (A New Beginning)

The night is darkest before dawn
With helpless thoughts, rest alone
A cold grey dawn, a new beginning
When the past is forgotten again
Your sweet caress, you are my air
My loneliness and my despair
You wait for me where waters freeze
Infecting me with your disease
The only touch that I have felt
I played the hand that I was dealt
And while it may seem I’m at ease
It’s growing much harder to breathe
And the morning light is still so cold
When the bottle’s all that’s left to hold
To face the day all swept away
And hope is flowing down the drain
Admit it, there’s no sun
The only lights are man made
And maybe there’ll be
A spotlight on my heart tonight
Your sweet caress…
And the morning light…
