Lyrics Just Another Day - Alice Ripley feat. Aaron Tveit, J. Robert Spencer, Louis Hobson, Jennifer Damiano & Adam Chanler-Berat

They′re the perfect loving family, so adoring
And I love them every day of every week
So my son's a little shit, my husband′s boring
And my daughter, though a genius, is a freak
Still I help them love each other
Father mother sister brother
Cheek to cheek
So it's times like these I wonder how I take it,
And if other families live the way we do.
If they love each other or if they just fake it,
And if other daughters feel like I feel too.
'Cause some days I think I′m dying,
But I′m really only trying to get through
For just another day, for another stolen hour
When the world will feel my power and obey
It's just another day
Feeling like I′ll live forever
Feeling like this feeling never goes away
For just another day.
When it's up to you to hold your house together
A house you built with patience and with care
But you′re grappling with that gray and rainy weather
And you're living on a latte and a prayer
Prayer
Can you keep the cup from tipping
Can you keep your grip from slipping in despair,
For just another day
In the hustle and the hurry
You want to wipe you worry clean away
For just another day.
I will keep the plates all spinning
With a smile so white and winning all the way
′Cause what doesn't kill me doesn't kill me
So fill me up for just another day.
It only hurts when I breathe.
It only hurts when I try.
It only hurts when I think.
It only hurts when I cry.
It only hurts when I work.
It only hurts when I play.
It only hurts when I move.
It only hurts when I say, It′s just another day
A dizzy, dizzy day
When the morning sun is showing
I will hold it all together
And you wish that you were running far away
I will hide the nest away
It′s just another day
I will survive another day
Birds are singing, figs are falling
And I will pray to hold on just this day
And you wish you would be gone
But you'll stay
You′ll stay
For my family's sake
For you know it′s now or never
I'll reap what I can take
And you know they′re gone forever
Stay
I'm only just awake
Every day is just another and another and another
I will hold it all together
We're the perfect loving family
If they say we′re not then fuck ′em
The perfect loving family
I will keep the plates all spinning
And the world just keeps on spinning
