Opening Up
Sara Bareilles
The day starts like the rest I’ve seen Another carbon copy of where I’ve already been. Days keep coming one on one and they keep coming. Don’t know what I wish I had But there’s no time now For thinking things like that. I’ve got too much to do (too much to do) We’ve got too much to do too much to do. Opening up letting the day in. Pour you a cup and say "Hello how ya been?" Looking around seeing the same things. It’s comforting how some things never change. Never change never change. Do they? I wouldn’t call this place a happy end But I’ve been ’round the block and just came back again. Could be worse so make it work no place is perfect. Hey no good in the outside world Because I feel too much and find it usually hurts. I like the way most of the days look exactly the same. Opening up everyday starts Over a cup served with "Hello how ya been?" Welcoming in whatever the day brings More of the same things. Check the clock tick tick tock Don’t stop serve with a smile hurry up. Fill the coffee cup and then in a while Take a breath when you need to be reminded That days like these we can only do the best we can. And do it all again. It’s the heartbeat the center the lifeline you enter. It’s the heartbeat the center the lifeline you enter. It’s the heartbeat the center the lifeline you enter. Opening up letting the day in. Pour you a cup and say "Hello how ya been?" Looking around seeing the same things. It’s comforting how some things never change. Never change never change and never change.
