A Perfect Day Songtext
von ilyAIMY

Once I had intelligence
Once I had the will
But all the lines a hard life finds
Will slowly redefine our tale
And the dreamer deep inside of me
Was eventually a casualty
And I think the things I couldn′t think
And I fight the fight I couldn't win
Inside my head


And I unwrapped the star this year
But it wasn′t where I had dreamed of being
And as the paper fell away
The glitter fell away
And the kids weren't there but I just don't care
She wanted plastic, I′d thought so hard for wood this year
They can open them alone
I paid for all this stuff
Ain′t that enough
And I am
Leaving

Winter came on oh so hard
And every muscle aches
From 40 years of knowing that passion is all it takes
Much too old to leave a pretty corpse
I'm too young to just forget
I′ll surprise you all with the poison in my head
The poison in my head

It was the perfect weathered grey
The perfect winter's day
As I climbed into the sky
I scribbled all the words that I couldn′t say
Like you'll be sorry when I′m dead
Oh so sorry when I'm dead
Now just once I'm gonna seize the day
And I am

I′m falling


The first one to the scene
They took everything they could get from me
And the doctors that came next
They feared the worst
That I was uninsured
The ink from the note had run
With the blood and snow and slush
It was a Christmas miracle they said
That if I wake
That I should live

But I′m
Flying
I'm flying
