Not Today
Only one song
To welcome in the morning
I open my eyes
And close them again tight
Darkness broken by the light
Morning burning through my skin
Begging me to come out
Not today, not today
I wrap myself up tighter
In the blanket I adopted
As a part of my soul and heart
I can’t let go.
Too many deaths in the world
Too much sickness in home
Too much darkness unpunished
Hide away safe and content
I won’t come out until it’s warm
I refuse to smile again
Until the bad guys can’t win
I’ll hide until its safe
When life’s not so hard
If I had the strength I would
If I had the courage I’d stand
But the sky is grey and it’s cold outside
So until then
Not today, not today
