Except Yesterday
(c. sloan)
She wakes up in the morning
and she looks at herslf in the mirror
She can't see through the reflections of her past
she can't see beyond her fears
She faces another day
it's just another one to waste
She'll meet a stranger on the street
but she will never see his face
Now she's running in circles thinking,
"Is this how it should be?"
She wonders what he's thinking about and she says,
"Is this really me?"
Days flow into one except yesterday
She doesn't know what she's hiding but she'll find a way
She'll put another mask on just to get by for today
(She'll wear a mask)
Tomorrow's just another day accept yesterday
She spends her time thinking
how that one moment changed her life
She doesn't know if she'll trust again
she barely gets by on survive
She thinks the people she has now
well they'll never stay too long
They're only out to hurt her
they're only out to cause her harm
Now she's running in circles thinking,
"Is this how it should be?"
She wonders what he's thinking about and she says,
"Is this really me?"
Days flow into one except yesterday
She doesn't know what she's hiding but she'll find a way
She'll put another mask on just to get by for today
(She'll wear a mask)
Tomorrow's just another day accept yesterday
She wonders what she'll be someday
when she's finally real
She doesn't know how to act sometimes
she doesn't know how to feel
I watch others reaching out
but she will never take their hand
She only wants the empty arms to hold her
to make her feel safe again
But she will never feel safe again
Now she's running in circles thinking,
"Is this how it should be?"
She wonders what he's thinking about and she says,
"Is this really me?"
Days flow into one except yesterday
She doesn't know what she's hiding but she'll find a way
She'll put another mask on just to get by for today
(She'll wear a mask)
Tomorrow's just another day
Days flow into one except yesterday
She doesn't know what she's hiding but she'll find a way
She'll put another mask on just to get by for today
(She'll wear a mask)
Tomorrow's just another day accept yesterday
