On My Way To Today | Song A Day #3958
12If I had a drawing board
I’d go back to it
If I could draw better
I’d relax to it
Instead I’m starting from itch
Trying to find everything I missed
On my way to today
I’m a lump of dried up clay
That’s been left behind
I’m a raisin middle aged
And out of time
My belly is so round
Through the concrete that I pound
On my way to today
On my way to today
I’ve had heartache
On my way to today
I’ve seen joy
On my way to today
I have ridden with
A marvelous little girl
And little boy
I’m a smooth talking
Tamborine of sin
I’m a night walking
Owl on the wind
If you stand on top my chest
I will tell you all the rest
The main plot and side quests
On my way to today
My new album I USED TO LOVE MY BODY is out NOW and available for download or streaming:

Hi there! If you're new around these parts, welcome. I'm Jonathan Mann. I write a song every single day, and I've been doing that for the last 10+ years.
Through sick days, tired days, days with no inspiration, the death of my grandma, the breakup of a 5 year long relationship, the marriage to my wife and the birth of our son - I've never missed a day. This is my life's work.
