I wake up in the morning
The ceiling looks the same
Begin a different story
With another empty page

There’s knee prints in the carpet, that linger from the night before
Who knows how long I’ll make it, all I know for sure

A will that I can’t tame, a flaw I can’t exchange, I fall
A heart that wants to frame, a picture I can’t paint, I try and try to change this, but I fall, I fall

In the village for the evening, to cure a lonely day
Delighted you could meet me, how did this go astray

I couldn’t cling to my composure, you left your coffee in the cup,
Today was mine not yours to shoulder, hurtful things I’ve said enough

Heaven knows my good intentions, the better me I try to make,
I fight to rise above the tension, I guess some things I can’t escape
