Down at my feet I see
my days are broken.
How could it be
the words I’ve just spoken
are coming against me
turned around? What the hell?

Today is the last day
for me to do this,
it is the last day
for me to get away.
Today is the first day
before I leave this
it is the first day
for me to turn away.
Escape the broken days

Never wanted to know you
or your stupid ways
now I’ve worked you into
each of my days,
I thought I would hate,
but found out I love, guess its
just the way that it goes.

Today is the last day
for me to do this,
it is the last day
for me to get away.
Today is the first day
before I leave this
it is the first day
for me to turn away.
Escape the broken days.

Rolling train, is coming
I can feel it, I can hear it,
hear it, hear it,
HERE IT COMES!!!

(pause)

Nothing before or after,
despite all the tears,
can stop the laughter
rolling over my fears.
You can’t teach me,
can’t teach me anything.

Today is the first day
before I leave this
it is the first day
for me to turn away,
And escape....
(break)
The broken days.
Today is the last day
for me to do this,
it is the last day
for you to get away.
Get away, try to get away,
get…a…way!

Rolling away,
to escape my day,
lies broken at my feet.
I quit, and nothing is complete.
I quit and nothing is complete.
Broken days, nothing is complete
