lyrics

(1)
Stuff here got me wondering /
Is this a test before we move onto other things /
Mood enhanced with a couple drinks /
Dull the pain for a while, stop us thinking 'bout the troubles which /

Often haunt us on the day to day /
It's the dream that keeps you going, looking forward to the great escape /
All these choices helped you pave the way /
But no one makes it out alive, in't that the strangest fate? /

And what a cloud to have hanging over /
And time passes by faster as you're getting older /
It's hard to focus on the finer things /
More so today, that feeling stuck inside forever twists /

Tearing at your guts again /
But you can't quite put your finger on it when /
You're looking for the answers on how to help the trouble mend /
Even though you're doing fine, it's hard to feel accomplishments /

The old adage of a pessimist /
Always searching for the negatives, he's the guy who never wins /
Project on others, that's his specialism /
He's the one who seeks advice but never listens /

To what they said in wisdom, always goes against the grain /
Looking back on every day he very nearly went insane /
Tryna pick apart the bit's to change 'em /
But what's done is done, y'need to let it go today, friend /

(Chorus)
I'm dreaming of the day /
I get to where I want to be /
Though I can't see the way /
And today that stuffs on top of me /
And even though I pray /
I don't think it changes things /
Coz it all stays the same /
And as time goes by I just can't seem to break away /

(2)
And some days you feel more blue than others /
Won't move the covers when that knot's all through your stomach /
Can't figure what's caused your mood to plummet /
Still you fought through it for summat /

Survived all your worst days so far /
Even if your hopes aren't tangible quite yet /
Progress requires growth for the most part /
Despite any set backs we might get, I guess /

It's imperative to stay with it /
Though determinations hard to come by with a drained spirit /
Need to recharge your batteries /
Seek out a battle scheme, reach out and ask your team /

It's not as hard when someone's there to help /
And it's unfair to dwell on anything that might effect your health /
Mentally, can't change what's been said to me /
So I try to let it go and vent it out to centre chi /

And practice peace over bitterness /
No cheat codes to win at this, and life's gritty, what is given to us /
Is a gift but when it hits the fan there's difficulties /
All the silver linings hidden from us /

And those cinematic visions here /
Don't match the script that we're living, yeah /
Slow clap for anyone who's winning here /
Even if you're clinging on, it's pretty clear, a lot can change in a year /

(Chorus)
I'm dreaming of the day /
I get to where I want to be /
Though I can't see the way /
And today that stuffs on top of me /
And even though I pray /
I don't think it changes things /
Coz it all stays the same /
And as time goes by I just can't seem to break away /
