Today, is another day like yesterday

A day like the one I once knew

Will tomorrow be the same

Or will it be new

Will the sun still be in the same place

Will the moon

Or will they decide to hide behind clouds until tomorrow

Or is that to soon

Will we awaken to nothing

Can the world change in a night

Will it be beautiful

Or a frightful sight

Can tomorrow be worse than today

Could yesterday have been paradise

Is the smoke our rebirth

Or our prize for throwing the dice

The flame in the palm of my hand

Is a mirror to yesterday

Through the smoke I don’t see tomorrow

Only what I fear to say

As ashes rain down

They cover what once was

What will never be again

Covering all our ambitions

Today might be the last day

We won’t know until tomorrow

It might be beautiful

We may never know
