Ordinary Day
------------

I saw the writing on the wall
But I didn't read it all
And now I'm wrapped up in the rain
Like it's 2020 all over again

So I’m reaching out to something
I thought I never would
Holding onto everything that I know is good
I turn to skies above me
Cause I don’t know if I can
Fix this one alone

Tell me why you’re walking away
On an ordinary day
With nothing left to say
Why don’t you scream and shout
Let it all out
You can’t just walk away
On an ordinary day
Just an ordinary day

The sun comes up
And I’m stuck in my bed
Going around and around with a thought
In the back of my head
As you're walking out the door
Could I still do something more?

Tell me why you’re walking away
On an ordinary day
With nothing left to say
Why don’t you scream and shout
Let it all out
You can’t just walk away
On an ordinary day
Just an ordinary day

And I swallow my pride
I've been holding inside
To let you know that I still love you
And oh, whatever it takes
I know we can still change
Why don't we start all over again

Tell me why you’re walking away
On an ordinary day
With nothing left to say
Why don’t you scream and shout
Let it all out
You can’t just walk away
On an ordinary day
Just an ordinary day

You can't just walk away
On an ordinary day
Just an ordinary day
