Better By Design

Better by design

Better everyday

Sleep and exercise

A Summer holiday

A closet full of clothes

Drugs to make your hairline grow

A wife at your side

Its on your morning drive

Its in your morning drink

Your hidden cigarettes

You close your eyes and think

That this is not the way

You thought about your perfect day

And you fantasize

Where are you going? You're not the man you used to be

Have you been hoping for someone to kick you while you

Sleepwalk through the day

And pull yourself away from what you need

Stop dreaming

Welcome to this perfect life

I hope the straps don't pull too tight

Walk around the grounds you'll see

A life mapped out so carefully

You'll never stay up late

Always have to pay for parking

Dishes by design

Nightmares over Christmas shopping

Watching, waiting, hesitating

Budgeting your days remaining

Wake yourself up, or be gone for good!

Before we learn to speak

Before we learn to stand

We learn to turn our heads

Like disappointed men

Who must believe that there's a better situation

Out there waiting for them

Another morning, another chance to make a change

Your heart is broken, but your eyes just look the other way

Convince yourself

Its never gonna be the way you want

Stop running

Because another year will surely pass you by

No matter what you eat, or where you exercise

Your clever mind, can't sleep forever

Open your eyes

You'll never stay up late

Always have to pay for parking

Dishes by Design

Nightmares over Christmas shopping

Watching, waiting, hesitating

Budgeting your days remaining

Wake yourself up, or be gone for good!

Wake yourself up, or be gone for good
