The Day After The Night Before

(album: The Monster Roars - 2022)

We are the face of the long ages past
And nothing changes at all
Is God still looking, has anyone asked?
Can any of us recall?

Break of day
Countless souls
Kneel and pray
Church doors closed, yeah

The day after the night before
That warm rapture was just a dream
They drew pictures upon the floor
It was the face of the virgin queen

When we learn nothing from yesterday's lies
And let the fire go out
What does it take just to open our eyes?
And what's this thing all about?

Fast asleep
It still rains
Falling deep
Unexplained, yeah

The day after the night before
That warm rapture was just a dream
They drew pictures upon the floor
It was the face of the virgin queen
They threw diamonds into the air
Their minds empty, their heads were sore
The sky cloudy and filled with prayer
The day after the night before

The sky was blood red
That morning
And one lonesome voice
Kept calling
Ashes to ashes
Today is the day

The day after the night before
That warm rapture was just a dream
They drew pictures upon the floor
It was the face of the virgin queen
They threw diamonds into the air
Their minds empty, their heads were sore
The sky cloudy and filled with prayer
The day after the night before
The day after the night before
The day after the night before
The day after the night before
The day after the night before

Well, uh, uh, allegedly
Apparently, I've done some before
No telling when I did it, though)
