Here's another day

Coming to an end

I did what I did

But what will remain?


I have followed every guideline

Got disciplined over time

Kept on trying and trying

But now nothing's the same?


All I have are these words

And this simple melody

I know nothing will return

I'm left with these

Lost memories


Here's another day

Coming to an end

Getting up today was tough

But I can't complain


If I have more, then I have less

Sometimes it feels just pointless

And we keep doing it over

And over again


All I have are these words

And this simple melody

I know nothing will ever return

I'm left with these

Lost memories
