Mayday Parade - One Day At A Time

 Mayday Parade - One Day At A Time

Same black hole from yesterday I fell into again today
If thirty’s just a number then I hope this last one brings me closure 
An open book, you try to read me
A paper photo burned to memory
In tattered pieces all around
An S.O.S. that’ll never reach you
Upside down and tired of hanging
Wrapped around your finger
Here’s to wishing you all the hope and joy and happiness this life affords you

I’m learning to fly
I’m learning to look in the mirror
One day at a time
When you’re all that I want but you’re not what I need right now

Can you take the working parts and reassemble broken hearts 
You said you hate me, I forgive you for every time you told me grow up
Spark an awkward conversation 
You talk to me like I know nothing
Anxiety is from the inside, but I’m just locked up on the outside
I wish for you all the hope and joy and happiness this life affords you 

I’m alone in the dark
I know I’m just caught in a feeling
Coming up empty and learning to pick up the pieces
