A Brighter Day
Written from the perspective of a person who is in the dark recesses of an illusory world that they have created and in which they feel trapped. What would it be like to take that first step into reality, using faith and love as the modes to transport them into a Brighter Day?
Lyrics
Hiding in the moonshadow, pressed against the wall
The world turns without her, as she struggles not to fall
That freshly painted corner, like all that she pretends
Traps her in a sticky web that never seems to end
She stares into the moonlight that keeps calling out her name
Drawn into the starry beams and all that they contain
She reaches past herself, no reason left to doubt
Finding courage in the truth that finally lets her out
It’s gonna’ be a brighter day
A time for revelations
I trust in you to lead the way
No need for complications
I believe, I believe…In me
Shaking like a newborn soul with barely opened eyes
A careful step onto the path, dropping her disguise
She’s ready now to shed the past, like smoke as she exhales
More confident with every move that love will still prevail
It’s gonna’ be a brighter day
A time for revelations
I trust in you to lead the way
No need for complications
I believe, I believe…
So much better taking chances, be alive
Take delight in joining dances, always strive
To be real, safe to feel
It’s gonna’ be a brighter day
A time for revelations
I trust in you to lead the way
No need for complications
I believe, I believe…
Oh, It’s gonna’ be a bright
It’s gonna’ be a brighter day
