Terrible Day

[Verse 1]

It's a terrible day

Woke up early in a Hippo-tested bed

Burned the mirror as I opened up the toast

Washing by the door, I threw away the post

Never saw the words that brought me down the most

[Verse 2]

It’s a terrible day

See the children with their hollow, floating minds

New religion, but they think that it's a game

See her secret smile, you never knew her name

Nothing matters now, but I do it just the same

[Chorus]

All I wanted was a call

But no onе picked it up and so I waited herе

All I asked for was a simple little sign

To prove the girl I thought was mine

Had always hated me - yeah

[Verse 3]

It's a terrible day

Sun reflected off the prism in my eye

Trouble blowing through the wind chimes in my head

Thought I heard them ringing in the silly things I said

Soon as you came home, I knew that it was dead

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

All I wanted was a hand

But no one came to help, or bring a cure to me

All I asked for was a friend to dig me out

When I was wallowing in doubt

And insecurity - yeah

[Verse 4]

It’s a terrible day

I pulled my clothes on and I buttoned up my shirt

I watched the traffic in the crater down below

Speeding everywhere, it always moves so slow

Saw her pulling out, I wonder where she'll go
