Oh What A Day

(album: Music Played By Humans - 2020)

Staring at my phone again
Holding my breath, need to count to ten
Decisions in the making, 24/7
I'm losing sight of everything I'm chasing

It's like the world is closing in
Under this blindfold I'm missing everything
Just as I think I need a change
She turns to me and says, "Oh what a day!"

Another voice, another call
I'm like a prisoner trapped inside these walls
And every one a question
Another bee sting, another lesson
Never a blessing

Engaging my defiance
Is there no warning inside the science?
Oh, to help my brain and keep me sane
She turns to me and says, "Oh what a day!"

She says, "What a day to be alive
It's a day to find your worst enemy and apologise"
She says, "What a day to start again
And if not today, then when?"
I'm reminded of the magic everywhere
Every time she says, "Oh what a day!"

So tired, but I can never sleep
I've quit the meditation, now I'm counting sheep
And my right ear's still buzzing
These telephone waves have left me hearing nothing

It's all a vicious cycle
The longest journey with no arrival
Oh, to ease my pain, yeah, once again
She turns to me and says, "Oh what a day!"

These words are playing on my mind
Wanna believe like she believes
But it's hard with all this endless noise in my mind

She says, "What a day to be alive
It's a day to find your worst enemy and apologise"
She says, "What a day to start again
And if not today, then when?"
I'm reminded of the magic everywhere
Every time she says, "Oh what a day!"

Oh to ease my pain, once again
She turns to me and says, "Oh what a day!"

She says, "What a day to be alive
It's a day to find your worst enemy and apologise"
She says, "What a day to start again
And if not today, then when?"
I'm reminded of the magic everywhere
Every time she says, "Oh what a day!"

Oh what a day!
