Good Day to Start

Midnight come early this evening
Loneliness was in the air
And I found myself grieving
Feeling more than my share
So I went through empty boxes
Of promises in print
Recounting all my wins and losses
In letters that I had never sent
Chorus:
And I’m alone again
On the back side of another twelve o’clock
I’m at home with no friends
I’m staring at the telephone and wishing I was not
I’m just waiting for someone to come and tear me all apart
So if you were waiting baby hesitating to break my heart
This would be a real good day to start
Sometimes I scare myself so badly
That I can’t hardly sleep
Everything just seems so heavy where I’m at
Underneath these one ton sheet
So I light myself a fire
And let it burn out my brain
I sit and wait for the flicker of desire
To turn to ashes turn to ashes in the teardrops of rain
Chorus x2
