Another lazy day

It's another day, as they always are, and I'm still sitting on my ass
I'm lazy and obsolete, sitting in the grass to rest sore unused feet
I'm sitting on my ass wondering what the fuck I'm going to eat
Watching the shadows pass me by, waiting for the sun to set so I can get to sleep
But I swear I don't close my eyes till it starts to rise
The beginning of the end for another timeless week

I'm wasting away, just sitting here waiting for a better day
Just waiting for a better day, just waiting, testing my faith
And I'm not seeing any difference, my indifference is killing me slowly
Never went to church, tried to burn a few once on a lazy Sunday
I'm far from holy, but a bad kid still has to play
I doubt these god's ever noticed a guy like me anyway

I'm watching the clouds hover above the crowds
But it isn't raining today and nobody speaks
So I feel the water from tears and the sounds of my faceless strings
And I sit and I sing, because I'm my only jester, I'm the lonesome king
I'm the only company I ever needed, but I'm starting to think I might be wrong
So I sit lazy as can be on my ass, and write another song
But it will never be heard by anyone

I need a job, just to survive, so I head into town but I keep walking on by
Window shopping for vacancy's, but they're all above me, so I'm just browsing
I'm browsing this town for the thousandth time
And I never seem to make too much, never get that far
But I found another rhyme, and I picked up my guitar
I don't need a car, but I'd love to get away
Rubbing my unused sore feet as I sit on my lazy ass
I can't walk too far but I'd love to get away
So I'm going to sit here, and think while I sink
I'd love to get away, but I'm the problem in this world
Tied down by myself, and thinking of words to say
And those things which make it feel like I'm away
So fuck today, it's going my way, and we're not moving anywhere
I'm drawing these curtains, I'm tired of the shadows, I don't want time to pass me by
I'm not moving, but I just can't waste another day
