Any Day Wiped clean by times stumbling gate Reflecting toward my inner hate I see sweet life spring anew I touch a birth with what I do As the dawn's warming rays Melt morning's beguiling haze I realize the truth of lies A new year's hope with spirit flies I wake the same as every day I speak the words I always say I see the sky the same again And now know change comes only when A choice is made in spite of time A goal is set without a chime Choice renders void the voice To hearken in a New Year's choice
