Another Black Day

I walk out the door to the street and I say
It looks almost just like how it did yesterday
I drive off to work to get bread in my jar
Now my jar ain't so empty, but I haven't got far

Up since the dawn, and I sang through the morning
Hip-Hip Hooray for another black day
Everything's turned around, and I'm hanging upside down
Hip-Hip Hooray for another black day

I've seen lonely men try to live in the past
I've seen lonely couples try to let it just last
I wish I could tell them that I've felt the same
But they don't want the truth, they just want someone to blame

Up since the dawn, and I sang through the morning
Hip-Hip Hooray for another black day
Everything's turned around, and I'm fucking upside down
Hip-Hip Hooray for another black day

I've seen it first hand, how a war makes a man
And I know that their truths I just can't understand
I've been through the fire, and the wake of the flood
And I've stepped in the grave that my forefathers dug

Up since the dawn and I sang through the morning
Hip-Hip Hooray for another black day
Everything's turned around, I'm fucking upside down
Hip-Hip Hooray for another black day
