lyrics

At the end of the day when it all comes down
To a quiet breath or a crashing sound
A train in the distance, or a siren’s whine
An echo at the bottom of the bottom line.
Do you scratch at the itches of the big regrets,
Pencil in the words that you wish you’d said,
Erase the places where temptation got away?
Tell me, does it all add up at the end of the day?

At the end of the day there’s no guarantees
No bright light when you hit your knees
With your heart in a fist, your head in your hands
Hanging from the gallows of circumstance.
Was there too little time? Too little pay?
Too many people getting in your way?
You can paint your life in black and white
But it all just fades to grey at the end of the day.

Shine on, daughters and sons
We might be diamonds when it’s all said and done
Tossed like stars into the heavens above
Tucked in deep in the ground of love.
There’s a story in the hand you hold
There’s a journey and it’s growing old
There is something that the whole thing keeps trying to say:
We are not alone at the end of the day.
