You Were Not Fit for the Day

I am unfit for these walls
I am unfit for these walls
Found a place to call home
The line rings out on its own

And you were not fit for the day
Carved heavy lines on your face
You told me to be on my way
And, looking for trouble, I stayed

And the winter comes covered with rain
But the light through the curtains zips through the wet window pane
And you wait for the times when the blinds are all drawn
And I skate on a river of times gone before
Hesitate as I walk past your door
And all the wild years have left a stain
You were a child dear
Didn't run the game

And the TV is yelling with rage
Light shining blue on your face
You found a place to call home
The bell tolls but you don't go

Cause you were not fit for the day
You were not fit for the day
You wait for the times when the blinds are all drawn
And I skate on a river of times gone before
Hesitate as I walk past your door
Look for love when its burning no more
And all the wild years have left a stain
You were a child dear
Didn't run the game

Cause you were not fit for the day
You were not fit for the day
You were not fit for the day
