Phoenix Effect - Killing the Afterglow

There's a wall I wanna sign with these words to underline
that I need time to look for my way
I need a stretch of open ground to see my way to hear the sound
Of my will wondering if I should stay

When your hand draws shadows
It's killing the afterglow
I no longer know

Will the sun keep shining, If they shoot down the birds aflight from the zenith to horizon

And now the moon has come to greet the dying earth beneath my feet
I feel close to the end of the day
So when it's time for me to go, am I free or do I owe
My soul for my part in this play

Still your hand draws shadows,
Killing the afterglow
Why won't it let go

Will the days keep dawning, If they send our children into the night taking your poison

Breathe life into me now
I Need you to show me how
Breath life don't hold me down
I need you to carry my crown

Will the days keep dawning
If they send our children into the night taking your poison
Still your hand is drawing the shadow
Why won't you just it let glow
Bitter afterglow
