Day by Day

Another morning without you
A soul removed, a void to fill
It seems like 'time heals' is just another lie
I was told to stay strong
Keep my head up
You'll be okay
I find that more and more unlikely, day by day

I still turn to ask you things
I make you cups of tea
I roll a fag and place it where you're sitting next to me
You're coming back
I don't know when or how
But you, gone forever?
I find that more and more unlikely, day by day

You didn't show up yesterday
You weren't here in the morning
I'll wait up for you tonight like I always do
You'll be back
Our bed remembers how you laid
I haven't cleaned your clothes since you left
I KNOW you're coming back
Even though
I find that more and more unlikely, day by day

Maybe I should move on
Maybe time can heal, if I let it
Maybe I AM strong and I've just been hiding from my growth
This is my chance
This is my calling
Become a new me
A better, wiser, stronger one
I won't fall again
Not like this
Not this low
And even if you're not here in flesh, you're here some other way
You'll live on, beside me, no matter what I do
I find that more and more likely, day by day
