The day I tried to win I dangled from the power lines And let the martyrs stretch yeah. Singing, one more time around Might do it One more time around Might make it One more time around Might do it One more time around The day I tried to live. Words would you say Never seem to live up to the ones inside your head The lives we make Never seem to ever get us anywhere but dead. The day I tried to live I wallowed in the blood and mud with all the other pigs. I really wish more people could put sarcasm meaningfully into a song like this. The day he "tried to live" is the day that Chris decided he would try to fit in with everyone else; and by doing so, he gave up all moral integrity for the purpose of just getting along and doing well, unfortunately.

I woke the same as any other day Except a voice was in my head It said, "Seize the day, pull the trigger Drop the blade and watch the rolling heads". The day I tried to live I stole a thousand beggars' change And gave it to the rich The day I tried to win I dangled from the power lines And let the martyrs stretch. Singing, one more time around might do it One more time around might make it One more time around might do it One more time around I might make it The day I tried to live, yeah. The day I tried to win I wallowed in the blood and mud With all the other pigs And I learned that I was a liar (One more time around) I learned that I was a liar (One more time around) I learned that I was a liar (One more time around) I learned that I was a liar (One more.
Having the workspace for this new album, I basically tried to set myself a nine-to-five work routine, and to try and finish writing a song a day. Finally having a studio with all my gear here was amazing. You sound very disciplined about your writing process. I’m sure everyone wants one, but I really want to get a good condition Neumann U47. That’s something I’m saving for!

Well I really didn't write them anyway. Well I tried to build a boat, so I could sail myself away; But I ran out of wood, and left standing on the harbor in the rain; Well I'd only get seasick anyway; Yeah I'd only get seasick anyway. I'm left standing on the ground, while these people fly around above my head. What a way to start my day; What a way to start my day; What a way to start my day! CHORUS.
