One of These Days
I keep on falling
Tripping over the things I cannot see
Dropping all my thoughts, so they scatter, again
Losing my mind...
Taking one step foward, only to be thrown back three
All my words seem to fall short
Of talking my way out of this mess
And, this daily routine is wearing thin
Of wading through this ocean of crap
Searching for the things that can't be found
Searching for things that have ceased to exisit
I'm trying to turn off these things
Trying to shut off these things inside me
That make me cry and ache
I can't seem to push that off switch
Can't seem to turn it off
My bleeding heart just seems to bleed, from its place
On my sleeve
My eyes just seem to cry, these endless tears
One thing after another, just goes completly wrong
And I don't know why, or how
I know, I know, "that's life, kid"
And, yeah, "life's not fair"
I know that...
But, foolishly, I still hope
That life is gonna be fair, one of these days...
