one day at a time

Mayday Parade

Same black hole from yesterday
I fell into again today
If thirty s just a number
Then I hope this last one brings me closure

An open book, you try to read me
A paper photo burned to memory
In tattered pieces all around
An S-O-S, that ll never reach you

Upside down and tired of hanging
Wrapped around your finger
Here s to wishing you all the hope and joy
And happiness this life affords you

I m learning to fly
I m learning to look in the mirror
One day at a time
When you re all that I want
But you re not what I need right now

Can you take the working parts and
Reassemble broken hearts
You said you hate me, I forgive you
For every time you told me grow up

Spark an awkward conversation
You talk to me like I know nothing
Anxiety is from the inside
but I m just locked up on the outside
I wish for you all the hope and joy
And happiness this life affords you

I m learning to fly
I m learning to look in the mirror
One day at a time
When you re all that I want
But you re not what I need right now

I m alone in the dark
I know I m just caught in a feeling
Coming up empty
And learning to pick up the pieces

Cause I m learning to fly
I m learning to look in the mirror
One day at a time
When you re all that I want
But you re not what I need right now

You re not what I need right now
