Every Day |
|
|
|
Pull the covers from my eyes, I've been hiding in this bed for days |
|
As if sleeping could make all my problems go away |
|
Each appearance of night is another day wasted, missed opportunities, failed excuses |
|
Facing problems head on is the only escape from this haze |
|
|
|
The last four years have offered many excuses |
|
The next four won't offer any more |
|
I've cut others down to raise myself up as if harsh words were ever enough |
|
Admitting the problem is a testament to change |
|
|
|
I'm trying to make every day count, every day count |
|
So that good times are many and failings are few, and my life can be a tribute to you |
|
|
|
Taking two steps back the whole thing became clearer |
|
Everything formulaic and precise |
|
The prizes are all laid out for the taking, justice is merely seeking a reason |
|
To enter in and set the world to rights |
|
|
|
We won't be young forever, we're aging every day |
|
And there's no guarantee we'll even make it through this day |
|
So while I'm young I'm taking chances, stealing looks then second glances |
|
We're gonna leave the world richer than when we came |
