Another Day by Zac Jr Lyrics

Less of a job and more of a chore
It wasn't really necessary at all
I did it for a while but finally the time came
To go without grace, and return to my old ways

Long time coming
Things I should have said before
What was I becoming?
A lot I had to answer for
A few shortcomings
Goals left for me to underscore
Sittin' here just strummin'
Melodies I wrote in dreams then write the chords

This came to me
At the edge of a dream

Wake up and you might decide
Any other way is a cold, hard lie
Another day and you will find
You're concealing
And ya feel a little lonely
Dun da da da dun da da

Trying out different jazz this time
A little of the same, but still fine
It's easier to do the things you like
When you're not dreading
The next morning the previous night

Can this last a while
Should I just go out in style?
I'll smile but I won't look like I'm smiling
I still find the time to put in the extra mile
In ways that I couldn't before
When I had to get up and out the door
Now I can lie on the floor
And write a song while I sleep then
Go straight to record, oh

I used this bridge before
It sounded good then and will do once more

I even found time to read a book
It was about a guy who got lost, and he got stuck
But after many months of patience, he realized he was
Happier stuck than he was free and aimless
The ideas I had in sleep still sound good in wake
As long as I have more of them that I can remember
I'll keep doing okay

Wake up and you might decide
Any other way is a cold, hard lie
Another day and you will find
You're concealing
And ya feel a little lonely
