The Day was written in a hotel room in Spain at dawn when I hadn’t slept. It was a beautiful hotel room, a beautiful perfect hotel room and it was six or seven in the morning. I wrote it on a acoustic guitar and recorded it on my phone, brought it home and re-recorded it with old broken down electronics that I have in my studio.

I try to know when to leave She sits in the bedroom and grieves There's a sequence that starts all again She can't get up anymore with the pain The combination of these drugs Has left her hopeless and lost She wants to count the ways But she can't count again
Chorus: I will be right here 'til all the pain Just disappear I will always stay 'til all this light Just kills the day
I strangle my words Once, I tried a thousand times Slaughtered like Gods When the silver shines so hard
I tried to poison my life Always dreaming of the edge of the knife She always looked backwards And I can sit here for even ten minutes or more
