Daylight's Breakin
Musical Blades
One last night spent waiting on the gallows
The natural world goes on outside
The bitter truth? Your lot, "Forsaken"
As all the world just passes by…
Long as days are nights are even longer
And they try your faith in God
And prayers, though shouted, seem to go unanswered
And the wind blows change through the shores of Botany Bay
Can you believe in light beyond the Shadows?
Where no good nor evil flow
Why hold on through the night when daylight's breakin
and the hangman's noose swings low
I've seen the lot; and faced the demons
Of bitter men, gone to their grave
The wretched poor, the injured child,
The clever girls become enslaved…
Long as days are nights are even longer
And they try your faith in God
And prayers, though shouted, seem to go unanswered
And the wind blows change through the shores of Botany Bay
Can you believe in light beyond the Shadows?
Where no good nor evil flow
Why hold on through the night when daylight's breakin
and the hangman's noose swings low
For all your worry, not one forgotten
As if their pain were yours to bare
And all your life, their tortured cries
Bind & Keep you, imprisoned there
Long as days are nights are even longer
And they try your faith in God
And prayers, though shouted, seem to go unanswered
And the wind blows change through the shores of Botany Bay
Can you believe in light beyond the Shadows?
Where no good nor evil flow
Why hold on through the night when daylight's breakin
and the hangman's noose swings low
Can you believe in light beyond the Shadows?
Where no good nor evil flow
Why hold on through the night when daylight's breakin
and the hangman's noose swings low
