Another Perfect Day

I work myself to an empty shell And that's just who I am Though some days I'm just paralysed With a light that I can't stand 'Till I throw the world, against the wall Just so I can breathe And just because I'm sober now That doesn't make me clean I leave the house in the grey Fake a prayer and block the pain And tread with hesitation to another perfect day There's tempers getting out of hand At the broken traffic lights I stood there trying not to judge I could understand both sides I wonder if he's ever cried As he slammed the drivers door I wonder if he thinks about it When he gives to the poor When he takes a step away From the path he didn't mean to pave I hope he makes the most out of Another perfect day Mmmm The holy trap of the noble guards Will curse a growing mind I don't hate them I just struggle To look them in the eye So write me off, to save some time 'Cause this is not my first design I've broken hearts and broken bones And crossed so many lines In the dark I'd hide away From all the different shades of grey That's why I'm so grateful For another perfect day You look at me so carefully You look away so slow I hope I learn to love myself Before you learn to know But I don't mind, don't explain We both have clothes out in the rain And there's not a single part of you That I'd ever want to change Word by word, way by way With every breath we start again And I'm not scared to walk with you To another perfect day Word by word, way by way With every breath we start again Word by word, way by way With every breath we start again Word by word, way by way With every breath we start again And I'm not scared to walk with you To another perfect day
