I walk up to my school with a gun in my backpack I look at the smiling faces and started heading back If I'm taking anyone's life I'll be taking my own So I pack my bags and run away from my home I hop on a train that was heading out west And I close my eyes to try and catch some rest Spraying graffiti on the side of boxcars In the dead of night staring up at the stars Even when life is nothing but sorrow I'm holding out for a better tomorrow Looks like I'm sticking around for a while Just to try and make a few people smile Counting the day to my demise Staring up at the cloudy rainy skies What's that thing that people say Tomorrow is another day I slump down in a dark and rainy alleyway In a city that's thousands of miles away I saw a junkie that had just run out of hope Belt around his arm and he's cronked out on the dope A quarter down the dragon and I hear a kid scream There's a guy in a van and he's doing what it seems So I grab the junkies needle and stab him in the eye Then bail when the cops come to help the kid and arrest the guy Even when life is nothing but sorrow I'm holding out for a better tomorrow Looks like I'm sticking around for a while Just to try and make a few people smile Counting the day to my demise Staring up at the cloudy rainy skies What's that thing that people say Tomorrow is another day Down by the boardwalk up by the pier The cop said "hey ya can't be squatting here" I said "screw you pig I hope you die" And he left me with a crack in my skull staring up at the sky I made my final wish for peace on the globe Then I saw the mother of the kid from all those months ago They said I might not make it on the way to the hospital I choke up some blood and laugh "I guess we'll never know" Even when life is nothing but sorrow I'm holding out for a better tomorrow Looks like I'm sticking around for a while Just to try and make a few people smile Counting the day to my demise Staring up at the cloudy rainy skies What's that thing that people say Tomorrow is another day I wake up bloody in the hospital bed With a throbbing pain shooting thru-out my head Across the room I see a little girl hooked up on chemo So I stagger out of bed and walk up to the piano As Ii tap away some patients gather around They seem to find some joy in my own sound I made myself a promise after seeing the smile of the girl If it's the last thing I'll do I bring some good on this world Even when life is nothing but sorrow I'm holding out for a better tomorrow Looks like I'm sticking around for a while Just to try and make a few people smile Counting the day to my demise Staring up at the cloudy rainy skies What's that thing that people say Tomorrow is another day I got some cash playing piano in the mall Soon enough I was playing concert halls But I knew what to do with the insight in my head I went back to the alley found the junkie and got him fed I looked at him and said I have a place he could stay But he's gotta put down the drugs cuz there is a better way I showed him the world of music and how to make cool sounds He joined up in a band and turned his life around Even when life is nothing but sorrow I'm holding out for a better tomorrow Looks like I'm sticking around for a while Just to try and make a few people smile Counting the day to my demise Staring up at the cloudy rainy skies What's that thing that people say Tomorrow is another day I walk to a park bench with fulfillment in my heart Cocked my head back and started staring at the stars If you can't live for yourself at least help some others out Cuz nothing good comes from dying in a shoot out And even after all of these years The joy the good the pain the tears One thing remains among over all the memories And it's that life is a big beautiful mystery Even when life is nothing but sorrow I'm holding out for a better tomorrow Looks like I'm sticking around for a while Just to try and make a few people smile Counting the day to my demise Staring up at the cloudy rainy skies What's that thing that people say Tomorrow is another day
