about

Early morning, just before the alarm clock is about to go off; Day In Day Out runs at 60bpm - the natural pace of time. Is this life or mere existence? The strange harp-like chords in the chorus are the Rickenbacker 12string played clean.

lyrics

Day In Day Out

Morning claws above the rooftops
Overcast and stale it rears
Through curtains twilight comes again
The tired grey dawn peers in
Silent figures languish while their freedom ticks away
As bottles chink outside another day begins

Untried dreams will die unperceived
As life is slowly marking time
Austere severe and cold
Echoing with the reprise
Of yet another day spent suffocating
In its routine

Count the minutes
Watch the clock
Day in day out, day in day out, day in day out, day in day out, day in day out, day in day out, day in day out day in day out

And so another weekend
Brings its warm tender embrace
Sink into its famiiarity
Relax in its grasp
Comforting release from the turmoil for a while
But too soon its coming round again

Day in day out, day in day out, day in day out, day in day out, day in day out, day in day out, day in day out day in day out
