I drink up all the snowfall like cold gin And now winter has passed like red on my skin It's stained from use, all pink and thin But nothing makes me smile like "keep up your chin" Swallow An effigy of the son's blood A remedy for my throat flood Hollow Blessedly wading through mud An elegy for my lifeblood And nothing else has changed It's just another day My eyes roll Over all the faces in my room The rocks all cave in on my tomb The tomb that is a bottle My eyes don't Focus in And my head is Wearing thin And my head is Full of gin And my head is Going through just another day it's just another day Nothing at all has changed Remember the smell of my breath there December, the mask that all months wear Offender who can't muster a prayer On a day that's not sunday It's just another day Resting on the side of a doorway and letting the floor hold me Passing the time gets me to a place that's unholy I shift and breathe cause it's only, another day It's just another day I've gnawed away the marrow every minute of this year I reach through the narrow space where I fear The space that I hold dear Lick my lips clean of the beer Laying on a chandelier laying on my bier It's just another year It's just another day So I'll wait As I'm buried in rocks and snow And I'll wait 'Til I get to go To my place On my shoulder the ash hued crow But there's only one way I have to wait Another day It's just another day

It's Just Another Day
I drink up all the snowfall like cold gin And now winter has passed like red on my skin It's stained from use, all pink and thin But nothing makes me smile like "keep up your chin" Swallow An effigy of the son's blood A remedy for my throat flood Hollow Blessedly wading through mud An elegy for my lifeblood And nothing else has changed It's just another day My eyes roll Over all the faces in my room The rocks all cave in on my tomb The tomb that is a bottle My eyes don't Focus in And my head is Wearing thin And my head is Full of gin And my head is Going through just another day it's just another day Nothing at all has changed Remember the smell of my breath there December, the mask that all months wear Offender who can't muster a prayer On a day that's not sunday It's just another day Resting on the side of a doorway and letting the floor hold me Passing the time gets me to a place that's unholy I shift and breathe cause it's only, another day It's just another day I've gnawed away the marrow every minute of this year I reach through the narrow space where I fear The space that I hold dear Lick my lips clean of the beer Laying on a chandelier laying on my bier It's just another year It's just another day So I'll wait As I'm buried in rocks and snow And I'll wait 'Til I get to go To my place On my shoulder the ash hued crow But there's only one way I have to wait Another day It's just another day
