Nine Days Lyrics
"Another Day"

Here's another day
She waits and pulls herself away
At just the right moment to save her face
watch the time go ticking down
The water falling on the ground
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
Well they make sure I remember
Just a little more than most
Make sure that I understand
The consequence of past

You needed just enough anger
To get you through the door
And you got just enough honesty
To make you want a little more

So it goes

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 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

Here's another day
she waits and pulls herself away
At just the right moment to save her face
Watch the time go ticking down
The waters falling on the ground
Catch myself and try to speak with grace

So it goes

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

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

If only for another day
