If tomorrow stayed away

Verse

If tomorrow stayed away,

Would I stand tall

In the burning light of today?

I’ve spent half my life chasin’ down old ghosts,

And the other half lyin’ to the one I needed most.

I’ve loved too wild and lost more than I planned,

Held on to mistakes like dust on my hands.

And when the silence hits and the shadows creep,

The man in the mirror ain’t the one I wanna keep.

Chorus

Would I be proud of the life I’ve made,

Or haunted by the bridges I let fade?

If the sun went dark at the end of the day—

Would I beg for one more chance to change

If tomorrow stayed away?

Verse

There’s a boy in my past still callin’ my name,

Beggin’ me to grow, but I stayed the same.

And the man I am now keeps wonderin’ why

I bite back my tears when I need to cry.

There’s kindness I felt but never gave out,

Words on my lips I was too damn scared to shout.

Sometimes I wonder if a softer heart

Might’ve saved someone before they fell apart.

Chorus

Would I be proud of the life I’ve made,

Or haunted by the bridges I let fade?

If the sun went dark at the end of the day—

Would I beg for one more chance to change

If tomorrow stayed away?

If tomorrow stayed away

Bridge

Maybe heaven ain’t a distant sky—

Maybe it’s forgiveness buried deep inside.

Maybe redemption’s just a whispered breath

When you face yourself with nothin’ left.

Chorus

Would I be proud of the life I’ve made,

Or haunted by the bridges I let fade?

If the light went out and the world turned gray—

Could I lay it all down unafraid

If tomorrow stayed away?

Oh…

If tomorrow stayed away.

If tomorrow stayed away.
