This Is the Day

_Soul Mining_
This Is The Day
Well… you didn’t wake up this morning --
Because you didn’t go to bed.
You were watching the whites of your eyes --
Turn RED!
The calendar, on your wall, is ticking the days off.
The calendar on your wall -- IS TICKING --
-- the days off.
You’ve been reading some old letters --
You smile and think how much you’ve changed.
All the money in the world --
-- Couldn’t bring back those days.
You pull back the curtains, and the sun burns into your eyes,
You watch a plane flying across a clear blue sky.
THIS IS THE DAY -- Your life will surely change.
THIS IS THE DAY -- Your life will surely change.
You could’ve done anything -- if you’d wanted --
And all your friends and family think that you’re lucky.
But the side of you they’ll never see --
Is when you’re left alone with the memories --
That hold your life together like --
— GLUE —
