Today is Not Real

[Sampled spoken word]
"I would be sitting here all by myself, laughing..."
(Nervous laughter)

[Verse 1]
In a half-hour, I'll be fine
The next twenty-nine minutes are gonna flow like concrete
My heart'll get so low, it can touch my feet
So just leave me alone, there's nothin' I need

[Refrain]
I'll feel better
I'll feel better

[Verse 2]
I will admit, the lows keep me alive
If it wasn't for the changes, I would probably die
Like how the dark never seems that dark when it's finally light
My concentration is a knot, but this depression keeps it tight

[Refrain]
I'll feel better
I'll feel better

[Verse 3]
I'm like the cold dead winter, finally looking for the spring and
You're the nice warm sun, you give birth to everything
Like a patient coming out of surgery, I remember how to feel
Like a traumatized victim, the past half hour wasn't real

[Refrain]
I'll feel better (I'll feel better)
I'll feel better (I'll feel better)

[Bridge]
So make up lies, and convince yourself they're true
Who am I to tell you what to do?

[Outro]
In a half-hour, I'll be fine
The next twenty-nine minutes are gonna flow like concrete
