Perfect Day

[Verse 1]
I want to go back to that perfect day
Where the rays streamed in on me
Take me back to that perfect day
With the stairs beneath my feet

[Verse 2]
The world was mine, I hadn't a care
I felt fine, everything was clear
Light cast shadows on this perfect day
The air was sweet with spring

[Verse 3]
Dust drifted down on this perfect day
And the colors formed around
The world was mine, I hadn't a care
I felt fine, everything was clear

[Verse 4]
I felt the carpet between my toes
My hand braced on a sill
Leaning forward I peered out
But I got a sudden chill

[Bridge]
The corner caved in, I lost control
There is no time to save my soul

[Verse 5]
I looked down and the floor was gray
The walls were clean and white
A brilliant sound outside filled the air
But something around me felt so tight

[Bridge]
The corner caved in, I lost control
There is no time to save my soul

The corner caved in, I lost control
There is no time to save my soul

[Outro]
Please bring me back to that perfect day
I haven't the strength to beg
Soon they're about to close the door
Sending my regards from the cell born boy
