Someday

Now I lay me down to sleep
I see the fading stars
And my scorched soul
Locked behind ivory bars

Assuming death is near
And what have I done
Absolutely nothing but cry
More guilt for the gun

If I spend my time
Just wasting away
Laying in bed with
Those storms that stay

I pray in the morning
For all to be okay
To bring end to mourning

It’ll happen someday
