Summer concerts in the pouring rain
Bombs raining down over the Ukraine
Crusin' the Caribbean down to Stirrup Cay
Stray bullets flying; kids trying to get away
Yeah, but it's a perfect day, somewhere

Getting married on a spring day at the New York MET
Working 80 hours for tips just to pay the rent
Paint 'n sip a sunset over a lone prairie 
A 35th anniversary celebrated in the cemetery
Yeah, but it's a perfect day, out there 

PRE-CHORUS:
How soon we all forget about the pain
Every minute it spread faster than the sense of dread
Carrying the weight of their absence everyday
Or was it only in my head
Oh, breathe
Simply breathe

CHORUS:
Nothing is the same
Let me count the ways
Aren't we the lucky ones?
How did we survive?
Did you even feel your heart break
When your daddy said goodbye?
Oh, well
All the voices in the distance
Fading away, reverberate 
Tell me how does it matter
When so few feel this way
All the world is moving on
But I'm still not okay
Oh, well
Everything is different
Everything has changed 
Oh, but for you
It's just another perfect day 

A weekend getaway to a Miami Beach 
Grieving families crying out, "No justice, no peace!"
Clear skies in the forecast for New Orleans
Hooked up to a ventilator just trying to breathe
A perfect pitch thrown under Dodger Stadium lights
Praying the love of your life makes it through the night
Flying first class to Dubai on Emirates, one way
Pleading don't go, don't leave
Darling, wait for me
Please stay

(PRE-CHORUS, CHORUS)

We all go through something 
Someone knows nothing about
We all were once lost together
But the scales tipped somehow
How can you not feel anything
For your neighbors or your friends
What will you do the next time you
Reach out for a helping hand
And no one reaches back too
Karma heeds no commands
What goes around, comes around
Every man walks on shallow ground
Waiting for the day
Everything will change

Because nothing is the same
In so many ways
Yes, you made it, you survived
Many never got to say goodbye
Set aside your foolish pride
And try to heal the divide, ooh
Oh, well
So many memories in the distance
But they will always be with you
When this pale blue dot existence
Tears your broken heart in two
Just look around, not very far
Their names are written in the stars
Embers like dust in the wind
And when the sunsets again, ooh
Oh, well
Everything will be different
But, it will all be okay
Because in Heaven it's always
A perfect day
Forever and always

Have faith, give sympathy
Be kind, have empathy
It's just another day for you
It's true, but for some
Tomorrow never comes
