Pain of Salvation - On a Tuesday lyrics

I was born in this building
It was the first Tuesday I had ever seen
And if I live to see tomorrow
It will be my Tuesday number 2119
How life has it's way of turning
Your best suit the wrong way
As if to smile and say:
"I feast on the irony my friend
I'm come-what may and it might just be
My friend that this is your unlucky day
Will you change
What would you give to stay?"
Will I change? I honestly can't say
I have no promises to trade for
The Lord of come-what may
To provide me with another day
Every promise that I make is
A promise I might break

The things we humans say to survive
The promises we make
The lies we tell, the vows we take
The battles we all win to survive
The prices we will pay
Though we all know, we will lose one day

Life is a ride, they say
But there are tickets I will never pay
I'm afraid there'll be no vow today
For any God of come-what may
You let me live, you let me die
For what I am right here and now
Nothing more than all I am today
I close my eyes, I do not pray
Promises, they tempt me too
Will I change? I won't be that fool
Maybe for a day, a week, maybe two
I'm a dreamer physicist, a man child escapist
The face of death won't make me an evangelist
I close my hands, not in prayer
Not in prayer, into fists

I lost the will

The things we humans say to survive
The promises we make
The lies we tell, the vows we take
The battles we all win to survive
The prices we will pay
Though we will lose either way

I lost the will, I lost the way
But haven't lost the faith
It's just lost in me
I lost the will, I lost the way
But haven't lost the faith
It's just lost in me
I lost the will, I lost the way
But haven't lost the faith
It's just lost in me i lost the will

The things that we must say to pretend
This passing light of day is not the end
Is not the end
The things that we all say to be saved
The things that we will trade
Just give away for one more day
We'll smile and tell sweet lies
To chase away the shadows that play
Cast by the passing light of day
