Black Monday lyrics

Black Monday is coming around again
And it feels like a friend that just won`t take a hint
`Cause it`s hanging me up
And it`s hanging around

And I`m feeling far too lost to feel too profound
When the tone of my voice is the loneliest sound
My heroes have all become pathetic clowns
And I`m feeling far too lost to feel too profound

My friend Kate, you laugh like a tidal wave
But `Charlie don`t surf` on your laughter on Black Mondays
And the shadows I feel are the shadows in me

And not even your face or your beautiful smile
Or the curve of your breasts or your laughing bright eyes
Could make me believe I`m a winner tonight
When Monday morning is just out of sight

I know a story
About a man who couldn`t see past his fingertips
To reach out and touch it
Was just too much like he needs it

And I know a woman
Who reached out to me and all she got were my barbed-wire hands
And I won`t be too proud
If she can`t depend on me when Black Monday starts coming around

My friend Kate, you are sad and beautiful
And the way I am has never been too good for us
`Cause I`m too blind to hear, and I`m too deaf to see

But I still have a voice that can call out your name
With a gut full of beer and a head full of pain
I can lie in your arms and be lovers again
And thank God Tuesday morning is just hours away

Do you know, I won`t let you down?
Rest your head when I come around
Do you know, you can count on me?
Laugh out loud, I see what you see
