The alarm by the bed Wring the dreams from my head It's a new day Leave the flakes in the bowl Milk unopened I'm gone But I'm still late Join the fight for a cab Take our place in the jam And watch the clock again There is a man in my head I think he came from the screen Or the bible All he wants is for me is to be strong But I seem to be unreliable You know it gets so hard When everything you are Is everything you don't want to be But at the end of the day You're the one who burns it all away The end of the day You're the one You're the one The end of the day So won't you show me those pictures you hold in your head And can you lose me somewhere inside them all Because there are colours that run through the heart of me That only you can see But at the end of the day You're the one who burns it all away The end of the day You're the one You're the one The end of the day You're the one who burns it all away You burn it all away You burn it all away You burn it all away You burn it all away
