It's the start of something brand new - it's the start of the closing line

With the door cracked an inch or two - do I dare set my foot inside?

Do I love you then lose you - or do I put my trust in time?

Do I let myself refuse to count on a fateful dream of mine?

Within me

It tugs on

My heartstrings

And I know

It's just a sky of silver gray - just a narrow passageway

Just a song cut off halfway - just another monday rain

Would I spend a week in the heart of the city;

In the center of your heart?

For a flash of fame before I'd lose the game

And be stuck on the outskirts, back at the start

There's no price I would not pay for the superlative insured

So I'll light the candle, hope it does not melt away

But what if patience brings reward?

It's just a sky of silver gray - just a narrow passageway

Just a song cut off halfway

Just another monday rain

Raining harder now, raining harder now, raining harder now

Within me

It tugs on

My heartstrings

My heart sings

This anthem

Of misery

Is it consequence

Or providence I'm on the fence

Of imminence

And nothing to gain drenched in the monday rain
