Today Is Breaking

Today is breaking, the world is waking
And taking its time wherever it will
Today is breaking right over the hill
Today is breaking, dreams are fading
As I lie so still

In the echo of the valley, in the chambers below
Burned-out candles, empty glasses, tales to be told
Rhyme and reason for every season, every twist and turn, every crash and burn
Today is breaking, what have we learned?

A long time ago, things we used to know
Lit up the sky and danced in the night
What we used to know, what’s wrong and what’s right
Today is breaking, the world is waking
And taking its time wherever it will
Today is breaking right over the hill

On the highway, on my way to get where I’m going, …leave it up to me
I will show you and you will see
Today is breaking, the world is waking
And taking its time like it always will
