(For those for whom today is enough)

lyrics

There are rats that are crawling across cracks in the pavement, looking for pain that they might as well find
And there is water that flows down the drains to the lake here, looking for quiet places to hide
And there is someone waiting alone, but it's not me. I'm on the street where it's sunny and light

Say hello to everyone. And tell them when the deed is done

There's the way all the windows are cold, dark, and empty, as if they've uncovered the hole in your heart
And there are kids on the playground, voicing rising in triumph, all of them chasing that one simple spark
And there is all of us, trying, our grip slowly slipping, we open our hands like we know where to start

So say hello to everyone. And tell them when the deed is done

Because all I want is for everything to be ok
But you insist on the promise of another day
Ok

There are games that you play while you're waiting for something, governed by rules that nobody else knows
And there are friends who will tell you that they know what you're missing, thinking that somehow they know what you chose
And there are rats that will welcome you home when you get there, sharing your pain, rending your clothes

So say hello to everyone
And tell me when the deed is done

Because all I want is for everything to be ok
But you insist on the promise of another day
Yeah, all I want is for everything to be ok
but you insist on the promise of another day
Well, ok
