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
