Itis One Of These Days
Caught by myself, put a lifetime on a shelf
Giving up just 'cause another gave up long ago
and shut herself inside a paper tomb
Where she wrote of pending doom
Penning lies that did deface, but then always she'd erase
Taking another's fall, saving another's wall
Gotta beat this thing that's got me, but I know I'm gonna stop me
One of these days I'll find a way, find a way to make it through
One of these times I'll realize, realize what must be true
One of these nights it'll be alright
Drip down the drain, drinking up another's pain
Slip into the fate I see, welcome all I hate
and become nothing
turn upon myself as she locks away my shelf
Feeding on a deadly potion, for my misguided devotion
You won't climb up, so I'll just slide down
You'll call it love when you see me on the ground
I'll fix it all though, you wait and see
I'll put an end to the things I do to me
