long hard day (rewrite 1)


the refrigerator hums
a song I've always known
a symphony of melodies
of all the sounds of home
the ticking of the clock
and the ringing of a glass
I am so damn thankful
to be back home at last

          and it's the end of a long hard day
          it's the end of a long hard day

the living room's not vacuumed
the dishes need to be done
but first, it's time to get some rest
before the setting sun
being here at home
is exactly what I need
time to rest my weary bones
time to smoke some weed

          and it's the end of a long hard day
          it's the end of a long hard day

every day I want to stay
in the shelter of my bed
Lord, give me the strength 
to face the day ahead
I wake up every morning
the future is unknown
everything depends on
arriving safely home

          and it's the end of a long hard day
          it's the end of a long hard day
