She came in cryin’ on a cold November night
Stars above, not a promise in sight
Mama held her close, said, “Baby don’t cry,
Life won’t ask you, it just passes by.”
'Cause the day you arrive, the clock starts to spin
You don’t get to choose how the game begins
Ain’t nothin’ fair, no matter how you try
The only truth’s the day you live and the day you die
She learned young how the world can bite
Watched her father lose his fight to the night
Lovers come and go like summer storms
She built her fire, learned to keep it warm
Yeah, the day you arrive, the story’s already told
You search for meaning, chasing fools' gold
Justice don’t knock, don’t even say goodbye
All you know for sure is you’re born and you’ll die
So the day you arrive, take a breath and see
There’s no promise carved in destiny
You laugh, you cry, you reach, you lie
But all that matters is how you say goodbye
Mmm…
Just the day you arrive...
And the day you leave…
