"For Every Dusk" lyrics

"For Every Dusk"

Sail on by
This is not your fight
Allow yourself to move on
For every dusk, there's a dawn

Sail on, move on
Away from zero-sum
When your gain is someone's loss
We keep feeding a lost cause

Sail on, sail on by
Don't let this be your strife
Scars run deep into the core
But a core that's rotten is not worth whining for

Is not worth whining for
Is not worth whining for

Sail on, move on
Beware when you're used as a pawn
See how they stole your innocence
How delusions won over common sense

So sail on, move on
Break free from the imprinting since you were born
Messianic myths of how things end
Insane just how many of us pretend

Now, if you simply sailed on by
We could all avoid these fights
Allow everyone to move on
For every dusk, there's a dawn
For every dusk, there's a dawn
For every dusk, there's a dawn
