[Verse 1] Dear diary, what a day it's been Dear diary, it's been just like a dream Woke up too late; wasn't where I should have been For goodness sake what's happening to me Write lightly, yours truly, dear diary [Verse 2] It was cold outside my door So many people by the score Rushing around so senselessly They don't notice there's people like me Write lightly, yours truly, dear diary
[Verse 3] They don't know what they're playing They've no way of knowing what the game is Still they carry on doing what they can Outside me, yours truly, dear diary [Verse 4] It's over; will tomorrow be the same? I know that they're really not to blame If they weren't so blind then surely they'd see There's a much better way for them to be Inside me, yours truly, dear diary [Interlude]
