Terrible Day

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's a terrible day Woke up early in a Hippo-tested bed Burned the mirror as I opened up the toast Washing by the door, I threw away the post Never saw the words that brought me down the most [Verse 2] It's a terrible day See the children with their hollow, floating minds New religion, but they think that it's a game See her secret smile, you never knew her name Nothing matters now, but I do it just the same [Chorus] All I wanted was a call But no onе picked it up and so I waited herе All I asked for was a simple little sign To prove the girl I thought was mine Had always hated me - yeah [Verse 3] It's a terrible day Sun reflected off the prism in my eye Trouble blowing through the wind chimes in my head Thought I heard them ringing in the silly things I said Soon as you came home, I knew that it was dead [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] All I wanted was a hand But no one came to help, or bring a cure to me All I asked for was a friend to dig me out When I was wallowing in doubt And insecurity - yeah [Verse 4] It's a terrible day I pulled my clothes on and I buttoned up my shirt I watched the traffic in the crater down below Speeding everywhere, it always moves so slow Saw her pulling out, I wonder where she'll go
