Just Another Day

They're the perfect loving family, so adoring And I love them every day of every week So my son's a little shit, my husband's boring And my daughter, though a genius, is a freak Still I help them love each other Father mother sister brother Cheek to cheek So it's times like these I wonder how I take it, And if other families live the way we do. If they love each other or if they just fake it, And if other daughters feel like I feel too. 'Cause some days I think I'm dying, But I'm really only trying to get through For just another day, for another stolen hour When the world will feel my power and obey It's just another day Feeling like I'll live forever Feeling like this feeling never goes away For just another day. When it's up to you to hold your house together A house you built with patience and with care But you're grappling with that gray and rainy weather And you're living on a latte and a prayer Prayer Can you keep the cup from tipping Can you keep your grip from slipping in despair, For just another day In the hustle and the hurry You want to wipe you worry clean away For just another day. I will keep the plates all spinning With a smile so white and winning all the way 'Cause what doesn't kill me doesn't kill me So fill me up for just another day. It only hurts when I breathe. It only hurts when I try. It only hurts when I think. It only hurts when I cry. It only hurts when I work. It only hurts when I play. It only hurts when I move. It only hurts when I say, It's just another day A dizzy, dizzy day When the morning sun is showing I will hold it all together And you wish that you were running far away I will hide the nest away It's just another day I will survive another day Birds are singing, figs are falling And I will pray to hold on just this day And you wish you would be gone But you'll stay You'll stay For my family's sake For you know it's now or never I'll reap what I can take And you know they're gone forever Stay I'm only just awake Every day is just another and another and another I will hold it all together We're the perfect loving family If they say we're not then fuck 'em The perfect loving family I will keep the plates all spinning And the world just keeps on spinning
