Late at night
And everything seems to be going wrong
When the light
Comes down it's hard to be so strong

The only sound
Is the sound of silence building in the hall
The only sight
My porcelain face on the bathroom wall

When the present's not so clear
Then the future's overwhelming
When the past was not the best
The present just keeps fading

It scares me to death
Not knowing what tomorrow holds
To watch beginnings end
And see each circumstance unfold

In the past
I could blame it on routine
Now I face
Deciding what is gonna be

It's my test
And I'm afraid that it's my time to fail
Gone to waste
Each moment passing air exhaled

When the present's not so clear
Then the future's overwhelming
When the past was not the best
The present just keeps fading

It scares me to death
Not knowing what tomorrow holds
To watch beginnings end
And see each circumstance unfold
