Everyday

Give me one reason
all excuses be damned
when I asked you for an answer
you just threw a wrench in all 
my plans

Oh cut me with your opal
the diamonds too damn
tired of harsh blood stains
in the iron 
of wild cards drawn 
in the night
I want a slight glisten 
of color 
held too close to the light

Give me something different
dear lord, it's all the same
oh life
oh life
well, Jesus
it's just so everyday

I want ripples and torrents
I want chaos I'll regret 
how I tire of this silence
the stagnance of the stay 
in the languid stillness 
that is, well,
just so every day

So, please give me
a reason
to run so far away 
to jump from all the clifftops
and will the sun to stay 

Give me something 
passionate 
and violent 
make me feel the pain
How is it better than the 
nothing 
of 
just so
everyday
