"One Day At A Time" lyrics

"One Day At A Time"

Same black hole from yesterday
I fell into again today
If thirty's just a number
Then I hope this last one brings me closure
An open book, you try to read me
A paper photo burned to memory
In tattered pieces all around
An S.O.S. that'll never reach you
Upside down and tired of hanging
Wrapped around your finger
Here's to wishing you all the hope and joy
And happiness this life affords you

I'm learning to fly
I'm learning to look in the mirror
One day at a time
When you're all that I want
But you're not what I need right now

Can you take the working parts
And reassemble broken hearts
You said you hate me, I forgive you
For every time you told me grow up
Spark an awkward conversation
You talk to me like I know nothing
Anxiety is from the inside
But I'm just locked up on the outside
I wish for you all the hope and joy
And happiness this life affords you

I'm learning to fly
I'm learning to look in the mirror
One day at a time
When you're all that I want
But you're not what I need right now

I'm alone in the dark
I know I'm just caught in a feeling
Coming up empty
And learning to pick up the pieces

'Cause I'm learning to fly
I'm learning to look in the mirror
One day at a time
When you're all that I want
But you're not what I need right now
You're not what I need right now
