Just Another Day

[Hook]
Chemical daze
Just another day
So I can draw
Conclusions in my ways
Just another day
I've come to take as law

[Verse 1]
And what more can I say?
Another day bleeds into the next until it fades
A phase is what they call it, I'm appalled that they're amazed
Guess I shouldn't be surprised that I caved
But still I gave everything I could to escape
From whatever negativity that's left I can blame
Cause now that there's no path left to be paved
Are all the voices in my head forever destined to stay?
My apologies, just my sleep paralysis
Gotta always balance it no matter what the challenge is
They say the pen is mightier, but my hands full of calluses
So my achilles heel is whatever the lack of balance gives
And we ain't born as kings, not many live in palaces
Some people chase the gold, I'm still finding what my chalice is
Should I be more open? I guess the question is cowardice
But stress is on my mind when I'm powerless

[Hook]

[Verse 2]
So tell me where to go?
If time lost all meaning tell me how would you approach
The challenge of climbing out of that hole without a rope?
Making it out alive, despising the path you chose
They say I'm loosing sleep cause I cannot reap what I sow
The needle in the haystack just couldn't bother to glow
Holding on to my sanity, imagining that it's hope
I'm tragically losing grip on reality I suppose
And this is not a memoir, consider it a memento
Derealization, like Lenny on that hotel phone
Almost feeling like I'm home
Dealing with the cards I been dealt, I felt I might fold
Thought this hell on Earth would never end until it all froze
Gotta do whatever I can to prevent the cycle
I could do it in my sleep, but awake I still got my eyes closed

[Outro]
How can you sleep and waste the day away?
How can you sleep?
You're not going backwards
You're not going backwards
