The Rose of Sunrise

I was wrestling with a demon
On a bed of cold regret
Full of dread and dreamin’
Of my vices and my debts
I’d made crazy choices in the dark
I’d heard hazy voices in my heart
Morning seemed like it was dead to me
Then a silent echo said to me

“Lay the rose of sunrise over yesterday’s remains
Bury doubt in light that’s dancing through the windowpane
When you’re circled by the shadows of remorse or wrath
Let the rose of sunrise bloom along your path”

I could feel the darkness threaten
To remove the rising dawn
I was swearin’, I was sweatin’
As if hope and breath were gone
Then my thoughts hung quiet in the air
As if hell might overhear my prayer
Yet what haunts the helpless flees the light
In the instant that it sees the light

So lay the rose of sunrise over yesterday’s remains
Bury doubt in light that’s dancing through the windowpane
When you’re circled by the shadows of remorse or wrath
Let the rose of sunrise bloom along your path

I’ve seen blessings in disguise
Lucifer with counterfeit light
Sometimes it requires tearful eyes
To distinguish what’s wrong from right

And lay the rose of sunrise over yesterday’s remains
Bury doubt in light that’s dancing through the windowpane
When you’re circled by the shadows of remorse or wrath
Let the rose of sunrise bloom along your path
