Day One |
I drew a curtain across your face |
Put the lid on this case |
I’ll never look at you the same |
This is what I tell myself |
Every day and every night |
I rip that curtain down |
But nothing there has changed |
It’s still day one |
I put two feet on the ground |
And walk to the end of the line |
We take what we can get |
By way of killing time |
I drew a circle around your face |
I should have looked some other place |
And never looked at it again |
This is what I tell myself |
Every day and every night |
I try to rub that circle out |
But nothing comes away |
It’s still day one |
I put two feet on the ground |
And walk to the end of the line |
We take what we can get |
By way of killing time |
What can I tell you? |
I’m at a dead end |
She is a best friend |
Says I’m at a loose end |
You know where you stand |
When it’s hand over hand |
But there’s no beginning |
And there is no end to a circle |
It’s day one, year zero |
And I’m in love with nothing again |
I sit here on the platform |
And I nurse my drunken brain |
And the train pulls in the station |
And the train pulls out again |
It’s day one |
It’s day one |
It’s still day one |
