Routine (Same Shit, Different Day)
There are a few random extra notes where my finger hit the wrong thing, but after the 6th or so time recording this, I just got tired and this was the best take. It's still decent. I'm just a nit-picker.
A guitar. A girl. Some words. A voice. 'Nuff said.

ROUTINE (SAME SHIT, DIFFERENT DAY)
every morning I get up
stare into my coffe cup
don't take a sip till it gets cold
pour it down the sink because its old
this learning to live thing is harder than it seems
and sometimes I think that im better off in dreams
I dont care what dear abby says
i think im going back to bed
Something tells me this isnt right
I should be able to make it thru the night
Without knowing how I'll feel in the morning
and I don't think I can do this again
We pretend that everything is fine
and I try not to say what's on my mind
because im afraid how you'll react
and my lack of progress wiill make up jump track
there are sometimes I find it hard to deal and
i have trouble differetiating between what is real
cos I see something in your smile--
emotion I havnt seen in a while
Something tells me this isn't right
I shouldnt want you to spend the night
cos I dont know how we'll feel in the morning
and I dont think I can risk this again
But still I wonder what you'd do
if I jsut reached up and stoop on my toes to reach your mouth
would you hold me close, lead me to the bedroom
or push me away and shut me out
So I hug you close and kiss your face
and leave these emotions in their
locked up place and I
smile as you say goodnight
try to convince my heart that this is right
cos it's best to leave things as they are and
I wave to you as you get in your car
I shut the door, have a ciggerette
you don't always want what you get
but Something still tells me this isnt right
abd I don't know how I'll make it thru the night
but on a pot of coffee for the morning and I
hope that I dont dream again
my last thought is how I wish you were here in the morning
before I fall back asleep again
