tomorrow is today

Puckered like your sweet and sour apple agitation

drowned down by your wine turned vinegar libation

armed with a guilt-driven sorry that topples nations

made clean of ****** hands bleached self-justification

 

today is the day that I give it all away

when tomorrow is today I will pray and I will say

if fate is this path, then from this path I will stray

 

sometimes in lies we often find the truth

sometimes in opinion we often find the proof

sometimes you're only intimate when you're most aloof

every time you watch the clock you feel the loss of youth

 

today is the day that I gave it all away

when tomorrow is today I will pray and I will say

until yesterday is tomorrow and today is a week from may

 

don't try and passify, invalidate and spin

don't hesitate, pontificate and everybody wins

don't just focus on the obvious

it's not just me so it must be us

i'll wait in the car, don't make a fuss

until yesterday is tomorrow and today is a bust
