The Middle of Your Day

Over the hill you see

The middle of your day

And the sun says, "It's time

For you to go your way"

Go and tell your mama

That you now know what to do

Her love will come in handy

She's always seen you through

But there's no one here to guide you

You got to do it by yourself

Minutes fail you day by day

And there's really nothing else

Where were you all morning?

Dodging life inside your heart

Never daring face to danger

Then attack right from the start

Go and tell your daddy

He was right in what he said

'Cause the laws of independence

Don't apply until you're dead

And though you'd like him here to push you

'Cause you feel a need for help

Minutes fail you day by day

And there's really nothing else

How long must we live inside?

Chains that anchors us to fear

How long must we just sit by?

When there's really nothing here

It's the middle of your day

Wake up to the middle of your day

Why don't you welcome?

The middle of your day
