The Day (Yeasayer remix)

I try to know when to leave

She sits in the bedroom and grieves

There's a sequence that starts all again

She can't get up anymore with the pain

The combination of these drugs

Has left her hopeless and lost

She wants to count the ways

But she can't count again

I will be right here

'Til all the pain

Just disappears

I will always stay

'Til all this light

Just kills the day

I strangle my words

Once, I tried a thousand times

Slaughtered like gods

When the silver shines so hard

I tried to poison my life

Always dreaming of the edge of the knife

She always looked backwards

And I can sit here for even ten minutes or more

I will be right here

'Til all the pain

Just disappears

I will always stay

'Til all this light

Just kills the day

Oh hold on

Just try again

I will be right here

'Til all the pain

Just disappears

I will always stay

'Til all this light

Just kills the day

Oh hold on

Just try again
