One of those days

    (2002)

    It's just one of those days.
    The days the faults come out
    when the defeats pile up.
    The days the snowballs get bigger
    and Hell gets closer.

    It's just one of those days.
    When the sun is overcast
    the grey is deluding and distilling
    The days the air gets colder
    and Heaven gets further away.

    It's just one of those days.
    When my grasp just slips a little more
    my fingers grope but can't find.
    The days the search gets harder
    and the price higher.

    It's just one of those days.
    When I can taste the cold of the grey
    the grime on my tongue, the steel on my teeth.
    The days it gets easier to pull the trigger
    and harder to come up with a reason not to.

    It's just one of those days.
    When I feel the pain behind the lies
    the stories get harder to believe.
    The days where it's harder to act the part
    and easier to take that final step.

    It's just one of those days.
    When the veil lifts
    the fog clears.
    The days the answer is clear
    and it's hard to stay here.
