One More Day
Eisley & Jon Crosby Lyrics

One day I slowly floated away
I drifted away from life slowly, one day at a time

All the war horses wore rubber bands
The horses in war had to wear rubber bands to conceal themselves in sand

To hide their hooves from sinking sand
The rubber bands were to prevent the horses from sinking in the sand

The commander in charge was hoping that
The leader in charge wished for the best outcome

Their destiny was not to die
The commander hoped that the horses would not meet their end in the war

Wake up in the morning
The start of a new day

I shall wake up and so shall you
We both will wake up in the morning

And I wake up, the sun is beautiful
Every morning, the sun looks stunning

And it is warming you and I
The sun is heating both of us

Fragile as we lie
We are vulnerable while we sleep

Hard to foresee the future
It's difficult to predict what will happen in the future

Our bodies are growing thin
Our bodies are slowly losing strength

Glimpsing the peeling paint of
Catching a glimpse of the cracked paint on

The nurse's ivory chin
The nurse's white chin

You've got a lot of nerve coming here
You're bold for showing up

Your eyes are beating rhythms way
Your eyes are moving quickly

Faster than the speeding bullet
Your eyes move faster than a bullet

That took the life of your radio
The bullet destroyed your radio

And in the corner chair, soft and soap-scented
A chair in the corner, smelling pleasantly clean

My darling cries apologies
My loved one is apologizing while crying

We foresee the mercy
We expect to receive mercy

That's been shown my young limbs
The mercy shown to us because of our youth

Will not go unthanked or unseen
We will show gratitude for the mercy we receive
