Beautiful Day

(lyric by rednblue07)

I'm already on my knees so I might as well pray
Knocked on heaven's door but God's not in today
This blue sky doesn't change a thing inside my soul anyway
But oh, it's a beautiful day

I don't feel a thing when the birds start to sing
Half-assing the dread over what the day might bring
Haven't slept all night and I'm not gonna function today
But oh, it's a beautiful day

CHORUS
God knows this sun-child don't like the rain
And those dark clouds always try to break my faith
Nothing to do but push on through until I fade away
And either way, it's a beautiful day

A beautiful day to burn bridges and make a choice
Keep a grip and lose the faith and strain my voice
Cuz I scream at anything that will hear what I say
And oh, what a beautiful day

And when the sinking Sun burns the sky from red to black
It doesn't matter cuz you can never take your regrets back
So I damn it all to hell and watch the lightning bugs play
And oh, it was a beautiful day

CHORUS

Two Jilted Lovers Walk Into A Bar

(Forgot this one existed. Lyric by rednblue07)

Some jokes are best told naked
So crawl into bed and I'll say the punch line again
Just for effect, then we'll discuss the implications
We're a triple entendre of "give it up"
Over sex and secrets and trying to believe
But was there anything between us at all?

So fools rush in where angels fear to tread
And I'm first in line
Time after time to get my spite
I'm first in line
Because in the end we're just the stuff of
After-dinner conversation
So light one up for me honey
We all know I'd be better off dead last

Everyone wants to hear about it
So kiss that bottle and tell all
What's the whole world missing about me baby?
I'm a byword in your circles, but you're just a word by my pen
And I hope you gag on the bitter taste
While you're dropping my name
