tomorrow
i said i'd start tomorrow

i'd begin this new lifestyle
i'd walk the extra mile
i'd live like i should
i'd do all i could

push down the dark
and lift up the light
hide all the black
and search for colors bright

tomorrow
i said i'd start tomorrow

i'd throw away the trash
and not just sweep it under the rug
i'd return all of the sand
to the deep hole that i've dug

find the true meaning
to the life that i should lead
plant new delicate flowers
and rid of all the weeds

tomorrow
i said i'd start tomorrow

i'd break down my barricade
and build a tiny fence
with walls not so restricting
but short, sturdy, and dense

make a conscious effort
to take a new outlook
re-write the past few pages
of this eternal book

tomorrow
i said i'd start tomorrow

tomorrow
tomorrow never came
