Opening Up

The day starts like the rest I've seen Another carbon copy of where I've already been Days keep coming One out one in, they keep coming I don't know what I wish I had But there's no time now for thinking things like that I've got too much to do Too much to do We've got too much to do Too much to do Opening up Letting the day in Pour you a cup And say "Hello, how you been?" Looking around Seeing the same things It's comforting how Some things never change Never change Never change Do they? I wouldn't call this place a happy end But I've been round the block and just came back again Could be worse, so make it work, no place is perfect, hey I'm no good in the outside world Because I feel too much and find it usually hurts I like the way most of the days look exactly the same Opening up Every day starts Over a cup served with "Hello, how you been?" Welcome it in Whatever the day brings More of the same things Check the clock tick tick tock don't stop serve with a smile Hurry up fill the coffee cup and then in a while Take a breath when you need to be reminded that with Days like these We can only do the best we can Then do it all again It's the heartbeat The center The lifeline You enter It's the heartbeat (the heartbeat) The center (the center) The lifeline (the lifeline) You enter (you enter) It's the heartbeat (the heartbeat) The center (the center) The lifeline (the lifeline) You enter (you enter) Opening up Letting the day in Pour you a cup And say "Hello, how you been?" Looking around Seeing the same things It's comforting how Some things never change Never change Never change They never change
