[Verse 1]
I looked into my morning mirror
And it reveals some things to me that I had not been able to see
I saw someone that I'm not sure I want to be
An empty, lonely face was staring back at me

All in all, I would have to say
It's been a rather dismal day

[Verse 2]
The afternoon was slow in coming
I drug myself outside to face that people that I knew would be there
And though they walked along pretending not to care
I knew behind my back they'd point and laugh and stare

All in all, I would have to say
It's been a rather dismal day

[Verse 3]
And now the evening shadow's falling
I guess it's best I lay my hopes to rest for no one's calling my name
I sit and wait behind a door that's never knocked on
I live in silence like my phone that's never talked on

All in all, I would have to say
It's been a rather dismal day
All in all, I would have to say
It's been a rather dismal day
All in all, I would have to say
It's been a rather dismal day
