That's Why Nothing Ever Gets Done

There’s only so many
Hours in the day
And we can’t use them all
anyway
Bodies break
temples burn
we destroy ourselves
we never learn
That’s why nothing gets done
Take your pick
Take your choice
Have a life
Or a voice
Get distracted
Always on
From the dark
into the dawn
that’s why nothing gets done
Got to feed
the hungry maw
got to tighten
that clenched jaw
every muscle
and every bone
was made to work
was picked and grown
but that’s why nothing ever gets done
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.
