Red Dawn - Vanessa Daou

Now I’m traveling with the shadows

At the speed of light

Back along the arrow of time

Trembling at the rising of the red dawn

High over winding roads

And empty streets

And lonely houses filled with

Soldiers and debutantes

Lovers and losers Teachers and hoarders

Players and cheaters Healers and doubters

Heroes and hustlers

And in everything I see chaos

And in everything order

I can decipher the waste and the shame

The giving the dying

And my place in the scheme

Is clear and pure as the cold midnight
