The Day I Tried To Live
Lyrics 
I woke the same as any other day
Except a voice was in my head
It said seize the day, pull the trigger
Drop the blade and watch the rolling heads

I woke the same as any other day
Except a voice was in my head

Drop the blade and watch the rolling heads

The day I tried to live
Might do it
One more time around
One more time around
To live up to the ones inside your head
To ever get us anywhere but dead
Just like you
Might do it
I dangled from the power lines
One more time around
I learned that I was a liar
One more time around
Might do it
Might do it
One more time around
Publisher: YOU MAKE ME SICK I MAKE MUSIC
The day I tried to win
With all the other pigs
Might make it
Words you say never seem
I learned that I was a liar
Singing one more time around
Singing one more time around
One more time around
I should have stayed in bed
Drop the blade and watch the rolling heads
I woke the same as any other day
I wallowed in the blood and mud
And I learned that I was a liar
I wallowed in the blood and mud

Might make it
It said seize the day, pull the trigger
One more time around
Might do it
One more time around
I woke the same as any other day you know
Might make it
The day I tried to win
With all the other pigs
The day I tried to live
The day I tried to live, live just like you
The day I tried to live, to live
One more time around
The day I tried to live, the day I tried
Except a voice was in my head
Might do it
And let the martyrs stretch
I stole a thousand beggar's change
I learned that I was a liar
The lives we make never seem
One more time around
One more time around
Singing one more time around
And gave it to the rich
