The New Dichotomy
Wake up every morning,
(Days go by, and that’s not new)
Tell yourself you’ll be okay,
Do what you have to do.
Wait to realize, once again
The new dichotomy:
You have to go on living, though
You don’t like what you see.
Wake up every morning,
(Sometimes, the sky is blue)
Tell yourself the world’s alright,
Do what you have to do.
Far abroad and close to home
The new dichotomy:
You have to go on living, though
You don’t like what you see.
Wake up every morning,
(Cuz what else can you do?)
Tell yourself the world’s okay,
Do what you have to do.
Here awake and here in dreams
The new dichotomy:
You have to go on living, though
You don’t like what you see.
