Today we live
Tomorrow we die,
Today we live
Yet we’re dead
The thought of tomorrow
The joy of the morrow
Is not enough to ease the hurt and the pain of today
I fought for her today, tomorrow
I fought for her day after day
Throwing sticks and stones,
One punch here, one punch there
One right, one left
The pains I received could not compare to the pains she felt
See, I couldn’t protect her from the monster at night
I couldn’t protect her from the monster that lay in sight
I couldn’t protect her from the monster she felt within
So I lost her to the monster that reflected without
Today we live
Tomorrow we die,
Today we live
Yet we’re dead
