THE DAY AFTER THE SORROW Copyright by STRANGEDT, 2026 [Verse 1] A whisper cuts through the quiet night Cold as steel, it kills the light Every word like a loaded gun Echoes screaming, “You’re undone” Shattered glass beneath my feet Every step, a bitter defeat But in the wreckage, faint and low A spark refuses not to glow [Pre-Chorus] I won’t drown in what I’ve lost I won’t break beneath the cost I won’t fade into the gray I won’t let this be my grave [Chorus] The day after the sorrow The day after tomorrow I rise from the pain I borrowed Still breathing, still alive The day after the sorrow The day after tomorrow No fate I have to follow I fight, I survive [Verse 2] Ashes fall like silent rain Etched in scars, I wear the pain But every shadow has an end And broken lines begin to bend A fractured soul can still rebuild An empty heart can still be filled [Pre-Chorus] I won’t drown in what I’ve lost I won’t break beneath the cost I won’t fade into the gray I won’t let this be my grave [Chorus] The day after the sorrow The day after tomorrow I rise from the pain I borrowed Still breathing, still alive The day after the sorrow The day after tomorrow No fate I have to follow Still breathing, still alive [Bridge] Heavy hearts don’t beat in vain Every loss ignites the flame What was buried won’t remain I am more than all this pain [Final Chorus] The day after the sorrow The day after tomorrow I rise from the pain I borrowed Still breathing, still alive The day after the sorrow The day after tomorrow No fate I have to follow Still breathing, still alive
