Another Day [Alexander]

Somehow she always just arrived, in the right place at the right time,
Though you knew she was always there, more by luck than by design,
And even though for every pose they treated her right, treated her fine,
If you asked her ‘How do you feel?’ she’d either lie or lower her eyes,
Now she’s almost canonised in a million wasted words,
All alone in a million homes, she’s silent but still heard,
Her smile is painted, it’s permanently fixed,
It cracks across her mouth just like a conjuring trick.

CHORUS:
And everything that she did, everyone she was with,
Every place that she went and all the money she spent,
Everything that she knew, and as I sit here with you,
I know that none of it matters at all....
It’s just another day [Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah]
It’s just another day [Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah]

He carries out his hidden agenda, more wasted life more money spent,
Married himself to his own wrist, shoots his shot and knows he’s missed,
And though she can’t see him at all, he watches her upon the wall,
Something cracks inside of him, he fills with hate and bitterness
Somewhere someone’s crying and they’ll never be the same,
Lost and cold and frightened they’re aching and in pain,
To think that after all these years, there must be more than this,
I’d like to give you back your decency and let you rest in peace.

Solo

And everything that she did and everyone she was with
And every place that she went and all the money she spent
Each single plan that she made and every man that she laid
All the food that she ate what she wore and what she weighed
Every book that she read and every sentence she said
Every step that she took, each secret room that she booked,
Every which, when and why from her birth until she died
And none of it, none of it matters at all...
Its just another day.
