I take a step back, take a look around, think about
How these things are changing around
Then I take another bottle, drink a toast and knock the top off
Then I neck it back and drink it down.
I breathe a little deeper, pay attention so I keep her,
Got to treat her right and not play around
And tomorrow in the morning I’ll get up and go to work and so
We’ll have just one more round.
She’s dressed up she’s gonna take me out dancing
I’ve got to get myself together tonight,
But I have another with my brother; got to hide it from my lover,
Make it out as though I’m all right.
I’m struggling to balance and I’m managing the challenge
Even though I’m going out of my mind,
Tomorrow in the morning I’ll get up and go to work
And so we’ll raise a glass just one more time.
Familiar, like family, and things that don’t exist,
Follow my gist, tomorrow I’ll wish I wasn’t living with insanity
But can I see in front of me to of all the things that I wished I’d be:
Familiar with my family and the monsters in the dark
But I get lost, get cross, lose track, jump queue,
I come and I go and I to and I fro like I don’t even know what I’m supposed to do
But I’m following the rhythm even when I’ve been drinking
And thinking that a change will come.
I think about what I’ve become,
With the humming and the strumming and the drummer – keep on drumming –
And the people all having fun.
Vitality and energy: I need to be more mentally
And physically alert to the drum,
Tomorrow in the morning I’ll give up again because I know
Tomorrow change is gonna come.
