Daybreak Lyrics - Singles - Dark At Dawn

As the sky's a flame, he stood high upon that hill 

Only him to blame, on his limbs this frozen chill 

That calls on him, the glow's beyond these mountainsides 

And creeps his skin, he prays for sun, he prays for light 

Now he fears so deep the second coming of a day 

Just to fall asleep, his skin still covered by the haze 

That veils his eyes, and in the crimson light of dawn 

His life's demise - a stillborn child there in his arms 

Chorus 

This son of mine - Take me 

Broken his eyes - Break me 

A life for a life - Freeze my heart beneath this new horizon... 

As the sight grew clear, a sparrow glides from far above 

For to touch so dear, oh, this tiny child, my love 

A lifeblood's leave, as the beam caresses its wings 

It sings the tune, calling lost life from deep within 

Chorus 

Taking this side for to give him some time - breaks a day 

Changing a light is a barter of time - seals the way 

Chorus
