Today wasn’t the day to carry
My head’s weighed down heavy
Pulsing in a burden calling distress
I have mistrust, lust in a love that never was
No, it isn’t what I needed or what I need
Love is a lie my parents couldn’t try to hide
Or any others or even on the greener side
I know I got me, alone I can suffice
Now I’m wandering away, walking
In the blacked out day I’ll be calling out, “don’t you wait”
We’ll never know love if we don’t learn how not to take
And have much more left to give, never hate
I thought I might have been ****** to a hole
A self dug darkness
But I found a way out and
I discovered me, myself, the one I need
Today was yesterday and tomorrow every day
And I’ve got to learn nothing stays the same
Not the heavy
Not the weighed
Nor the burden of a horrible day
