Today
today came stumbling in
like a drunk
a drunk coming home
and now I don’t know
I just don’t know
if I have the courage to do
what needs to be done
I just don’t know
I’m not that strong
how did those heroes win the wars
of way back then
oh way back then

was the hero
of the past
only the one
the one
who kept on walking
when there were so many reasons
so many reasons to run
run away
ah ah away
ah ah away

today
today came staggering to an end
like a runner gasping
at the end of a run
and now I don’t know
I just don’t know
if I have the strength to do
what needs to be done
I just don’t know
I’m not that strong
how did the saints survive the fires
of way back then
oh way back then

was the saint
of the past
only the one
the one
who kept on walking
when there were so many reasons
so many reasons to run
run away
ah ah away
ah ah away

today may have been the dirtiest day
you’ve ever had to live
but midnight is coming
yeah midnight is coming
and tomorrow is coming in clean
