A Better Day

You slid beneath your ruined day
pulled out your pride and went on your way
you slid beneath your ruined week
you know your answers are underneath

now I find you with the tears dried on your face
you pretend that all your sadness is erased
tell me, was today a better day?

you slid beneath your ruined month
you say you'd found love once
you slid beneath your ruined year
and told yourself that it was better here

as if it wasn't already bad enough
here come new reasons you're scared of loving anyone
you wish that you could go back some way
and find some comfort in a ruined day
