Luke Leighfield - Every Day

To Rate
Pull the covers from my eyes, I’ve been hiding in this bed for days
As if sleeping could make all my problems go away
Each appearance of night is another day wasted, missed opportunities, failed excuses
Facing problems head on is the only escape from this haze

The last four years have offered many excuses
The next four won’t offer any more
I’ve cut others down to raise myself up as if harsh words were ever enough
Admitting the problem is a testament to change

I’m trying to make every day count, every day count
So that good times are many and failings are few, and my life can be a tribute to you

Taking two steps back the whole thing became clearer
Everything formulaic and precise
The prizes are all laid out for the taking, justice is merely seeking a reason
To enter in and set the world to rights

We won’t be young forever, we’re aging every day
And there’s no guarantee we’ll even make it through this day
So while I’m young I’m taking chances, stealing looks then second glances
We’re gonna leave the world richer than when we came
