That Day

Artists : Poe : That Day

Tommorrow's coming around a
hairpined curve in the road.
She's got a run in her stocking and
she's missing the heel of her shoe.
Got up this morning, rolled out of bed.
I spilled a diet coke, called my mother said, "Hi." What I meant to say was,
"Why's your life a joke?"
Then I went down to that ugly bar and I clicked my heels three times just like you said
And I climbed that road to your empty house.
The anticipation was a turn on -
but you let me down. Cause I stood on
that empty stoop alone. I said, "I'm ready
for my close up now Mr. Demille."
I waited for the light but it never shown.
Well I wonder what you'll do with that expensive piece of land that overlooks
a billion years of history.
I have a sneaking suspicion
you will never understand.
Hey, maybe I'll see you down by t
he rocky and bullwinkle and we can talk
to that Charlatan psychic and she can paint
a prettier picture of your future.

It's that day in my life.
That day, in my life.
I dreamt tomorrow
had a prettier face
I dreamt tomorrow would
have better things to say.
Than,"You look like shit.
What's your problem bitch?
Your legs feel like sandpaper,
you can't do anything right"
Cause that day never should
have taken place.
This day in my life, still cannot explain
why I listened in the first place,
to you.

Oh yeah, something else.
I hope one day you call up your
father and you have the guts to
tell him how he hurt you
and how he made you hurt another.
Cause it makes me sad.
