No Celebration Lyrics

In the whiskey hours, I sit mourning
But the morning brings no consolation
Sun is rising, sky is yawning
The new day brings no celebrationNo celebration
Reminds me life is hard
Here in my back yardAnd I lie awake and I stare at the sky
And my life passes by
And I lie here suffering, wondering
How long, how longIn a sea of silence, I lay wondering
But with it comes no real solution
Dreams die young in this world of violence
Just to be betrayed by revolution, revolution
Still my life is hard here in my back yardAnd I lie awake and I stare at the sky
As my life passes by
And I lie here suffering, wondering
How long, how longWe are only the beginning here
None of us will reach the end
So hold me close like an angel

With your breath draw me inFeel me swim through your bloodstream
Hear my voice, soft but clear
After today things will never be the same
I'm sorry for you, my dearIn a world of darkness
We are surrounded, surrounded by eternity
We reach out but no love abounds us
Guess we traded it for sanity
Still my life is hard here in my back yardAnd I lie awake and I stare at the sky
And my life passes by
And I lie here suffering, wondering
How long, how longIn the whiskey hours, I sit mourning
But the morning brings no consolation
Sun is rising, sky is yawning
But the new day brings no celebration
