Everyday
(Ove Ritola)

Every day is another day to just find me away
Substitutes for violence and excuses why I cannot stay
I've left myself behind
I've let it all rush on by
Still alive

Everyday's a different day I've now promised myself
I just can't stop dreaming though every damn day's off the shelf
Cloak the stupidity
Giving in one more inch
Still alive

Every day my windowsill holds the flowers of the past
Looking out into the yard, children playing on the grass
Their knees colored green
Whistling cartoon themes
Still alive
