Just Another Day



Today is just another day
There was a time when today
Meant more than just another day
It was today, tomorrow, and forever
It was in sickness and in health
Oh, what a joyous time today was.
Only today is filled with a void
A void that swallows up
Today, tomorrow, and forever.
What made today
Just another day?
I wish today could be more than
Just Another day...
