Nine Days - Another Day lyrics

Here's another day She waits and pulls herself away At just the right moment to save her face I watch the time go ticking down The waters falling on the ground I catch myself and try to speak with grace You needed just enough anger To get you through the door And you got just enough honesty To make you want a little more I wish for nothing but the rain To fall and wash away Everything that I've done wrong Find a way to make you strong If only for another day When I'm all alone, just me and my ghosts Standing three deep, just like sentries at their post They make sure I remember just a little more than most They make sure that I understand the consequence of past When you see me chasing daydreams and you know that I'm not there I'm not the one who sits across from you, who returns your stare And I watch as you grow quiet like you always did And I wait to get what I deserve It's the part that doesn't die that makes it hurt
