[hometext] => When it can't get much worse, the odds are a better day is coming...
[bodytext] => October 24, 2010 Monday 9:40 a.m. A Better Day's Comin' I'm under the weather; At the end of my tether; A solitary feather; But a better day's comin' somewhere around the bend; Thank God, no river is allowed to stand still; Even so, I think I've had my fill; Feel like a thirsty flower stuck on a window sill; But a better day's comin' somewhere around the bend; Yeah, a better day's comin' somewhere around the bend... And even if it isn't it's not mine to say; Just gotta' keep movin' on anyway... Rapid change ain't never been easy for me; I just slowly creep towards the sea; My motion is imperceptible, but it goes on unendingly; But a better day's comin' somewhere around the bend; They say life ain't no destination; it's a journey; That puttin' down roots will end our story; Why is it then we strive to build our nests in lifeless cemeteries; A better day's comin' somewhere around the bend; A better day's gotta' be comin' somewhere around the bend... Down in the dumps; meds ain't doin' their job; Feel like a stripped down, dried out old corn cob; All alone in the middle of a cacophonic motionless mob; But a better day's comin' somewhere around the bend; They say a better day's comin' somewhere around the bend... And even if it isn't it's not mine to say; Just gotta' keep movin' on anyway... 'cause when we stop learnin', essentially, we're dead; When we think we've arrived, essentially, we're on our death bed; Essentially, yesterday's manna is today's moldy bread; But a better day's comin' somewhere around the bend; Yeah, a better day's comin' somewhere around the bend...
