Testo The Difference Ronnie Day
These words I was destined to write
Will find peace on the paper tonight
Like it makes a difference
If they live or they die
And Iâll stay up till 6 A.M.
Killing words and re-writing them
Like it makes a difference
To the publicâs eye.
Try hard as I might
I can not write a song without a name
I am alone and thatâs OK
I will live life in my own way
I will eat breakfast after sunset on the fence
And I will let rebels disobey
And I will let angels sit and pray
But I will not settle for a life without suspense
And thatâs the difference
My feet, they are naked and cold
While the sky, like a halogen bulb
Works to make a difference
I watch the morning glisten
Now I know that the things Iâm missing
Are not as bright as I thought theyâd be
Theyâre not as bright as me
And itâs One Hundred And Six A.M.
But this songâs still my timeless friend
Herein lies the difference
Because you know, youâve got to listen
To yourself when youâre reminiscing
Iâll take my time writing this down
Iâll be writing it down
Iâll be making it up, though.
Thatâs indifference to a story that was told to you
By a world with the point of view
of a horoscope
Their leaps of faith and misplaced hopes
Their penitence is worse than their thrones.
