If you're still awake, this is for you
Don't hesitate, I'm almost through
The light will break, revealing truth
Something the dark could never do
When the needle clicks, and the record ends
And you realize that you're alone again
I'll trace your palms with my pen
Until the ink decides to settle beneath my skin
The sun also rises, my friends
You pound away at these keys
Harder and harder, with every beat
You're playing the most beautiful things
But the sounds, they are few and far between
My friends all live in different states
But I'll see each and every one, I don't care how long it takes
Some say the bad will always outweigh the good
But I've been here long enough to know, that it just ain't true
The sun also rises, my friends
