Tomorrow Needs You

Post by Pigfarmer Jr »

Tomorrow Needs You
Pigfarmer Jr feat. Tabitha Arnett

There's a ring lying on a nightstand,
A pillow damp with tears from a faithful man
A phone call in the middle of the day,
left him alone with two small kids to raise

Tomorrow needs you to get through today
Heaven took an angel and left you in pain
Forever fades as tomorrow begins
This isn’t where your story ends
Tomorrow needs you to get through today

There's a picture missing on the wall
Reminded him of that mournful call
broken glass shattered on the floor
The aftermath of slamming the door

Tomorrow needs you to get through today
Heaven took an angel and left you in pain
Forever fades as tomorrow begins
This isn’t where your story ends
Tomorrow needs you to get through today

You tuck them in and close the door
Each night when they go to bed
Can't you see there's still more?
Can't you see there's love ahead?

Tomorrow needs you to get through today
Heaven took an angel and left you in pain
Forever fades as tomorrow begins
This isn’t where your story ends
Tomorrow needs you to get through today
Tomorrow needs you to get through today

added the last verse after i had recorded it

the day is done
dark night has begun
bad moon is due
tomorrow needs you

the wolves they howl
they're on the prowl
bad moon's in view
tomorrow needs you

the world's on tilt
blood has been spilt
i think we're screwed
tomorrow needs you

hatred trumped love
demons below now above
if your promise is true
tomorrow needs you

Tomorrow needs you now - Hoblit

You think it can wait until tomorrow
Nothing needs your attention now
You still have time to borrow
It’ll be all right somehow

But tomorrow needs you
It really needs you
Tomorrow needs you now

It could even be too late already
You should have kicked in the door
Now you’re not sure if you are ready
You whimper instead of roar
So get yourself up off the floor
You have to be doing more

Because tomorrow needs you
It really needs you
Tomorrow needs you now

Tomorrow Needs You
by Brown Word and the Big Whine

It may be that some people want you to fail,
You may not know them, they may not know you
But you feel them there, working against you
And maybe you're thinking that things look hopeless
and like nothing you do matters
and like maybe it's time to throw in the towel
the odds of you existing at all are astronomical
don't let these fuckers win!

well there's a war for your attention
stimulation pulling in all directions
maybe that you're little confused
the way that things are going feels like abuse
every day deception, hostility
this ain't how it used to be
get off of the screen, community
hard to find the words with all the scrutiny

seize the day
no matter where it leads you
don't despair because tomorrow needs you
your existence is your resistance
can't retreat because tomorrow needs you

maybe tomorrow never comes
but every new day was just a dream once
I remember all the things grandmother told
don't forget to be here let the moment unfold
you might end up catastrophizing
way outside the now with a fear in your eyes
when everything sucks and you wanna say fuck it
don't give in, don't wanna kick no buckets

seize the day
no matter where it leads you
don't despair because tomorrow needs you
your existence is your resistance
can't retreat because tomorrow needs you

don't lose your heart normal to react
never make a promise that you can't retract
no permanent solutions to temporary strife
always hope while you're still breathing life!
well fuck 'em they can't take a joke
never show your hand don't let 'em take your hope
the light can be shadowed don't dim the source
shining from you, you're a reckoning force

we need you
we need you

if you feel like today might be too hard to fight
you don't see the colors, you just feel blue
and you really don't know what to do

remember my love is true
and tomorrow needs you

Tomorrow Needs You
by The Reverend

I can't change your heart
I can't read your mind
We can't even start
To know what we might find

If all these years apart
Were stuffed inside a cave
Would blind fish find their way
Is there anything to save?

Tomorrow needs you
But some days won't
Tomorrow would argue
Even if you won't
