Boring, old, normal, how attractive it seems
Since life came and kicked a great big hole in my dreams
Now I read all the words on the tins on the shelf
And I try to remember to be kind to myself
And the days keep crawling past
Just how long can this emptiness last?
Just give me something I can fix my eyes on
A hint of hope out on the far horizon
Good days and bad days, I have no doubt
I could get by if they'd just even 'em out
Well, I just can't shake off this great weight that I feel
Get up and get dressed, shouldn't be such a big deal
And now I don't know where things end or begin
The day of the week or the state that I'm in
But the days keep crawling past
Just how long can this emptiness last?
Just give me something I can fix my eyes on
A hint of hope out on the far horizon
Good days and bad days, I have no doubt
I could get by if they'd just even 'em out
Now I'm spending my days like I'm lost in a fog
I got nowhere to walk that big old black dog
And I just can't believe what this has done to my health
So don't judge me too harshly, I can do that myself
And the days blur into one
I just can't seem to get anything done
Just give me something I can fix my eyes on
A hint of hope out on the far horizon
Good days and bad days, I have no doubt
I could get by if they'd just even 'em out
I could get by if they'd just even 'em out
Billy Bragg is a British singer-songwriter, guitarist, and activist born in Barking, Essex, in 1957. His music combines elements of folk, punk, and soul with politically and socially charged lyrics, aligning with the tradition of protest songs. Bragg began his musical career in the 1980s, influenced by artists like Woody Guthrie and Bob Dylan. His direct style and incisive songs have won him a wide audience and established him as one of Britain's most important singer-songwriters. Among his most notable albums are "Brewing Up a Storm" (1986), "Talking with the Taxman About Poetry" (1989), and "Mermaid Avenue" (1998), a collaboration with Wilco and Ralph Stanley that revisits Woody Guthrie's unpublished songs. Bragg is also a politically active activist engaged in the fight for workers' rights and against social injustice. His music has always reflected his worldview and his civic commitment.
