Narrow Daylight

Narrow daylight entered my room
Shining hours were brief
Winter is over, summer is near
Are we stronger than we believe?

I walked through halls of reputation
Among the infamous too
As the camera clings to the common thread
Beyond all vanity, into a gaze to shoot you through

Is the kindness we count upon
Hidden in everyone?

I slipped out in a sunlit grove
Although deep down I wished it would rain
Washing away all the sadness and tears
That will never fall so heavily again

Is the kindness we count upon
Hidden in everyone?

I stood there in a salt spray air
Felt the wind sweeping over my face
Ran up through the rocks to the old wooden cross
It's a place where I can find some peace

Narrow daylight entered my room
Shining hours were brief
Winter is over, summer is near
Are we stronger than we believe?
