What a Day 3

What A day it's been
Everything has changed again
I paint the perfect picture but I left it with no frame to bend
So How the hell am I suppose to be the perfect man?
My purpose was person with a certain knack for turning hands
Alice in wonderland, lo and behold
I've been frozen in the moment but I'm never this cold
River Queen I'm just a jack, I just never could fold
So with ⁴ need and every act, I'm what the veteran rolled
When I get old, I guess that my life into an avalanche
A penny for your thoughts... I never had a chance
Your a fruit upon the tree I couldn't grab a branch
And awkward footing aside, I'm kinda glad that we had a dance
All purpose you're the cause of all these verses
Have a ball and grab your purses you're afraid of being worthless
I think were the audience and you needed the show
But I need you to know that I only thought you needed to grow

For every person I've hurt
And all the people I need
For all the time that I've wasted while I've been smoking this weed
This one's for you
(What a day it's been
I spent it trying to save a friend
I built a bridge and made it bend
I hope that we can amends)
For all the hope that I've given
And all the reasons I blame
To every person that I've healed
And all the people in pain
This one's for you
(What a day it's been
I spent it trying to save a friend
I built a bridge and made it bend
I hope that we can make amends)

We all know that time froze from the moment that I saw you
Hook, line and sinker I don't need a name to call you
Dug a couple trenches that I tried to help you crawl through
I can't really even help what set of arms you choose to fall to
But I'm a pawn and I guess that makes you the chess board
I wanted you to be yourself I never could expect more
And Miss- I could give you kisses til your fucking necks sore
But I could never be the key that opens up the next door
It's kinda funny ain't it, probably really coulda really made it
Hatred with no place to aim it, guess it's all just what you make it
I asked her if she hated me then why would she stay with me?
And that's about the time she walked away from me
I think you lost the answer mama, somewhere in the give and take
You demonstrate the ebb and break and never have to hesitate
The holiest of holys and your white as a ghost
Don't try to get close, I've gotta another lie to expose

For every bridge that I've burned
And every friend that I've lost
For shot and every bottle
And whatever it cost
This ones for you
(What a day it's been
I spent it trying to save a friend
I built a bridge and made it bend
I hope that we can make amends)
For all the moments I left
And all the times that I ran
For everyone who understands I do the best that I can
This ones for you
(What a day it's been
I spent it trying to save a friend
I built a bridge and made it bend
I hope that we can make amends)

I've lost a lot of love and loved a lot of what I lost
I've learned a lot of what I've got I sacrifice it like a cross
And often now, more than then, I can see it in my sleep
I'm gonna need a little faith before I take another leap

Yeah, what a life Its been
You should check the price again
I'll put it in these verses with a flow as chill as nitrogen
It might've been the Vicodin, but that was so long ago
You would think I've memorized my rights, with all the wrong I know
The truth is... I was never who I claim to be
I hope your gun is aimed at me, I'm still here waiting patiently
For you to see that fire doesn't burn without some air
And what you did to me just isn't fair
It's whatever though, there's three sides to everybodies story if you listen close
And I aint going anywhere, you'll never have to miss a ghost
Give and go mentality I'll see you when I'm sleeping
I've spent too much time in the deep end
The same damn mile that I started in the first one
Isnt close to over even though I've had my first son
Life is still like a gun, I just leave it empty now
I'm just hoping someone here can let me down

For every woman I've loved
And every city I've built
For every time I felt like I could kill myself with the guilt
This ones for you
(What a day it's been
I spent it trying to save a friend
I built a bridge and made it bend
I hope that we can make amends)
For every fan that I have
And every breathe that I take
For anyone who's ever felt like they just needed a break
This ones for you
(What a day its been
I spent it trying to save a friend
I built a bridge and made it bend
I hope that we can make amends)
