Carbon Leaf On Any Given Day
I woke up broke free, drove a long time
It didn't purge you from my mind
Hang up the hill maybe your right
Chalk it up to a starry night
To be set free to live and learn
Did we pass or fail the term?
You wrote a note with chalk on my door
A message I'd known long before
On any given day you'll find me gone
On any given day you'll find me gone
Give me your reason, give me your rhyme
So I can tempo me to your time
So I can scratch your surface and be
A deeper part of the mystery
To be undone to be alone
To live life in monotone
I reach the beach and try to ignore
The warning I'd known long before
On any given day you'll find me gone
On any given day you'll find me gone
I've been down to the sea
I've been down to the sea
And so all of the lovers will say
Forever star crossed will we stay
Still I can't help feeling
Castaway on any given day
Still I can't help feeling
You'll run away on any given day
I window shop for you in my mind
A flannel shirt at the five and dime
A leather coat cut fixed in a style
Boots from plastic crocodile
A pine cone dipped in glitter glue
A penny 1942
A necklace with a cheap green stone
Barefeet, cold sand, chilled to the bone
On any given day you'll fine me gone
On any given day you'll fine me gone
I've been down to the sea
I've been down to the sea
And so all of the lovers will say
Forever star crossed will we stay
Still I can't help feeling
Castaway on any given day
Still I can't help feeling
You'll run away on any given
My eye on you, my eye on you
My eye on you always
My eye on you, my eye on you
My eye on you always
Still I can't help feeling
Castaway on any given day
Still I can't help feeling
You'll run away on any given day
Lift my hands up smell to reveal
Your perfume on the steering wheel
You're next to me asleep and I smile
I think I'll drive on for a while
On any given day you'll find me gone
