[Verse 1]
Well, just for today
We can wish away fate
And welcome the moment at hand
Whether it is deserved
May it be left undisturbed
Just for a second of peace
And as I count all my foes
Distinguished and closed
Is how I hope they remain
For this life is too long
And this world has been wronged
By sinners and saints and more

[Chorus]
Just for today
Just for today
Why don't you stay?
Just for today

[Verse 2]
I watch my bones dry and shatter
For what purpose do they serve?
I don't feel that I can keep them
I don't feel that I deserve
To feel human for an hour
Or even for a minute
While I'm crying with the saints
And I'm laughing with the sinners
So
[Chorus]
Just for today
Just for today
Why don't you stay?
Just for today

[Verse 3]
And I never felt human
I never felt human before
I never felt human
I never felt human before
And I never felt human before you
I never felt human before you
I never felt human before you
I never felt human before you arrived

[Bridge]
Before you arrived
Before you arrived
Before you arrived

[Outro]
And I'm half the man I should be
And I'm half the man I should be
And I'm half the man I should be
Can't you see?
Can't you see?
That I'm half the man I should be
I'm half the man I should be
I'm half the man I should be
You never see
