It's been a long day
When nothing seems to be goin my way
I really don't need a lot
Just trying to hold on to what I got

Lord knows it's been a while
Since my face has cracked a smile
So hot in the midday sun
Seem to be burnin' everyone

Oh self destruction
It is keeping me from functioning
I try to build things up
I build things up and I tear them down

Oh, I'm escaping
I'm escaping this big blue day
And now I'm trying
Tyin' to look out into the horizon

Oh, I got no motivation
Oh, I need some inspiration
Try and get some motivation
To help me, help me get through this day

And then the winter comes
I'm hardly seeing any sun
Hibernation's taking me
Into a distant sleep

Lord knows it's been a while
Since my face has cracked a smile
So cold in the winter months
Seem to be chillin' everyone

Oh self destruction
It is keeping me from functioning
And I try to build things up
I build things up and I tear them down

Oh, I'm escapin'
I'm escaping this big blue day
And now I, I am tryin'
Tryin' to look out into the horizon

Oh, I've got no motivation
Oh, I need some inspiration
I try and get some motivation
To help me, help me get through this day

Oh, I'm escapin'
I'm escaping this big blue day
And now I, I am tryin'
Tryin' to look out into the horizon

Oh, I'm escapin'
I'm escaping this big blue day
And now I, I am tryin'
Tryin' to look out into the horizon
