If I Had A Reason - Amber Smith

These are the days when the golden streaks

Of sun cut through the open spheres

Erase the books and useless words

And songs that will be never heard

These are the times we’ll live our dreams

We’ll rule the caves, for trees extinct

We’ll find our peace in shadow where

The sun won’t burn us into ember

These are the days our holy scripts are

Slowly sinking into the sea

Time for us to abandon work

And cherish life, what it’s worth

These are the days we’ll grow our wings

To get away, but no one seems

To mind there is nowhere to go

And it’s too late to fight our war

These are the times for the choir to sing

The song we kept in our memories

The time to neglect all your chores

As nothing matters anymore

If I had a reason not to worry

I wouldn’t write these words, believe me

If I had a reason not to worry

But I see your eyes are already burning

Let me be the first to go
