Cry For The Morning

Steam is rising off the ground
 And the hot air is only cooled
 By the sound of rain drops falling
 And the night is so near
 She takes me in her arms
 And then far away the fire streaks
 Through the sky and
 I second-guess what I hear
 I'm sure there's something there
 But not yet
 Here l sit in this place
 So cramped and tired
 And I pray for distant morning
 The embrace of painless morphine
 Her breath on my body
 I need her where I'm going
 And crash in the nights
 I stand and curse the era
 When we make our own terror
 Is sanity getting rarer
 And then
 There's no warning
 From the embrace
 To the final attack
 There's no warning
 Feel the crack
 Feel the crack of the
 Whip of my back
 No more pain
 No more fear
 Reality is here
 Cry for the morning
 Cry for the morning
