Today of all Days (Monday)

Full Playlist

[intro]
oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ay
oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ooh-ay

[verse 1]
We pass each other, flying by. 
Touching, but never connecting
I need you by my side
I need to tell you about my day
Can you just sit here a moment?
Please don't rush
I need you to stay

[pre-chorus]
oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ay
oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ooh-ay
What do you remember?

[chorus]
We don't tryyyy to feel
We just cryyyy on our own
I wish weeee could just talk about them
I don't want to be alone
today of all days.

[interlude]
(oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ay)
(oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ooh-ay)

[verse 2]
This life is way too hard
I hate seeing you broken
You always protect me
please don't spare me your tears.
All you give to me, 
why can't you take from me
Everything I want to give

[pre-chorus]
oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ay
oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ooh-ay
Please, talk to me

[chorus]
We don't tryyyy to feel
We just cryyyy on our own
I wish weeee could just talk about them
I don't want to be alone
today of all days.

[post-chorus]
oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ay
oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ooh-ay
today of all days.

[bridge]
(oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ay)
Mama, please don't go
Can't handle this day
Got so much to talk about
I want you to stay
If they were still here.
Tell me, what would you say?
We can feel this together.
We're two halves of the same pain
(oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ooh-ay)

[chorus]
We don't tryyyy to feel
We just cryyyy on our own
I wish weeee could just talk about them
I don't want to be alone.
Why can't we tryyyy to heal
We shouldn't cryyyy on our own
I just neeeed to talk to you
I don't want to grieve alone
When will we tryyyy to feel
I'm tired of cryyyying alone.
I neeeed you to talk to me
I don't wanna miss them on my own
today of all days.

[interlude]
(oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ay)
(oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ooh-ay)

[slow outro][spoken word]
Mama, don't go.
Can we talk?
I have something to say.
Can you just sit here a moment?
Please don't rush
Today
of all days.
(oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ay)
(oh-ay, aaaah-ooh-ooh-ay)
