not today

Joshua Radin

Outside, the world's on fire
You try to breathe but you're tired
There's nothin' anyone can say
To point the people in the right way

Still, we say
Oh, not today, good times are comin' around
Oh, not today, nothin' is bringin' us down
Oh, not today, good times are comin' around
Oh, not today, nothin' is bringin' us down

I took a walk to the cafe
Passed the spots where the kids play
Those kids are all locked up inside
There's no seek now, there's only hide

Still, we say
Oh, not today, good times are comin' around
Oh, not today, nothin' is bringin' us down
Oh, not today, good times are comin' around
Oh, not today, nothin' is bringin' us down

Oh, woah-woah, where to go?
Hey-hey-hey, we're locked away
And I can only cry

Yesterday, got a warnin'
Then we woke up in the mornin'
We're the ones who crashed this train
Now nothin' will ever be the same

Still, we say
Oh, not today, good times are comin' around
Oh, not today, nothin' is bringin' us down
Oh, not today, good times are comin' around
Oh, not today, nothin' is bringin' us down
