Just A Day Lyrics

All those candy-coated glass pieces

That you wanted to dissolve just like little gumdrops

In your throat they feel like cellophane

Doctors say "Block out the pain inside

Your bleeding heart can die some other day"

Gotta be fine-tuned Gotta be within the reach

Of someone's calling just to hear your name drop

Be wise, don't pace your steps on easy tries

Or what you'll get is less than what you paid them for

The world I saw got lost inside of you

And unlike me I know you don't see

Days going by as stars burn through the sky

Every now and then I stop and wonder why

I ever need to learn to pray

Cause I'm never gonna live for more than just a day

Think fast, it's all unwrapping at the sides

And barely acting to disguise all your scars and headaches

Turn the page to chapter two, go easy on the deja vu

What makes you think it's worth another try?

What to do about now?

All she left behind is what you gave to her

I think I heard your heart stop

Be wise and turn the page on dirty lies

To break your cage in two

I guess that's what you came here for

The world I saw got lost inside of you

And unlike me I know you don't see

Days going by as stars burn through the sky

Every now and then I stop and wonder why

I don't feel what broke through my shame

And never doubted what I ever thought I had to say

Before I die let me live for more that just a day

Careful now and watch your step

Devil's down the hall and to left of mine

If you're so smart then who spelled out your name?

And wrote us down before we ever hit the page?

And never doubted what we ever thought we had to say?

Before we die let us live for more than just a day
