I used to have someone who kept me at home
Sometimes the anchor and sometimes the storm
Strong chain'll break if you pull hard enough
It ain't the waves, but the drifting that's tough
I used to have reasons to get out of bed
A ladder to climb and team to be led
Bullet point dreams projected on screens
One day I could no longer hear what was said
They tell you that work is a blessing
But I know Monday morning's a curse
And a new day just feels like a new way for things to get worse
If I've learned one lesson, it's never to face
Anything that you can postpone
But you're Sunday night gorgeous and I'm praying that you're alone
I used to have demons I bothered to fight
I wish that I may and I wish that I might
Sometimes the hard part's pretending to care
A hand once extended is no longer there
They tell you that work is a blessing
But I know Monday morning's a curse
And a new day just feels like a new way for things to get worse
If I've learned one lesson, it's never to face
Anything that you can postpone
But you're Sunday night gorgeous and I'm praying that you're alone
