Today's Tomorrow

She's taking it down in cap size increments

She'll have one more, take her medicine

She hopes for some more and soon she will pray

Today's tomorrow, tomorrow's today

She ties, ties, ties her self in knots

She's down at the bar taking some shots

One leads to four and four leads to five

She's numbing herself till I'm not alive

I pamper myself with a couple more

The streetcars sound like the waves on the shore

The traffic tide pulls me slowly away

Today's tomorrow, tomorrow's today

I won't be coming down, I'm busy mending my broken heart

I lie, I lie, I lie, you don't need to start

I dumb myself down, thinking it's smart

Maybe we're better off alone and apart

I was wrong

You were wrong

In each others eyes

I was right

You were right

in our own eyes

I stare at the bottles with canceled eyes

The drunks, the dogs, and the children have truth in their lies

I'd hope one would come and show me the way

Today's tomorrow, tomorrow's today

I'm stumbling home gonna pay the price

I'll try not to be cold, I'm gonna make it nice

I poured my heart out with the bottle I've filled

Walking home to you is always uphill
