Personal Day
©Pladek/Faustine


VERSE 1
Unread memos in piles
That stretch for miles
Are holding down my desk
Y’see work makes me lightheaded
And my gravity gets weak

As I stare outside
The day carries by
Each moment that I’ve missed
As I sit and shuffle papers
Till my brain begins to leak

CHORUS
Oh could it be
Oh dare I say
It’s time to take
It’s time to take
Another unscheduled day
I’ll grab a moment
And I’ll probably grab a beer
Drag myself
Drag my soul
Far away from here

VERSE 2
If I leave
Will you go or will you stay
It’s just a job y’know
We need to find some time alone
Get removed from public view

Being by yourself
Is good mental health
But if you’d like to go
It’d improve my time alone
To be alone with you

CHORUS
Oh dare I say
Oh could it be
You want to run
You want to run
You want to run away with me
If the day’s too short
Well we’ll maybe stay a year
And never think to come back baby
Anywhere close to here

VERSE 3
Sliding fast and free
The darkness covers me
And helps me so
Forget the constant drone of life
And things I’ve never done

And we’re running wild
Another mile
Slipped down between ourselves
And where we’ve been
Can you see the rising sun

CHORUS
Oh could it be
Could it be true
I’m taking off
I’m blasting off
I’m moving on with you
If the day’s too short
Then we’ll probably stay a year
And never think and never come back
Anywhere close to here
