Lyrics
She polished every piece of silverware
Straightened all the kitchen chairs
Saying "I'm so close
But I'm not there, yet"
She gets her grief to hide behind
Napkin rings and vacuum lines
He's not coming home
But the table's all set
Sometimes life is such a disaster
And until we find the piece that we're after
Ooh, we all cope
Everybody's got their ways
Yeah, I know I've got mine
At the back of Monday's matinee
There's a man with failure on his face
He's saying "I'm so close
It's like a joke, now"
He's got a ticket stub in his suit
For each dead-end job interview
Like he's collecting reasons for laughing out loud
You know, any minute things can get better
And from now we hold our pieces
Together
Ooh, we all cope
Everybody's got their ways
You know I've got mine
Ooh, the blinds all closed
Doing anything it takes
To get you through the night
We all need hope
And until we're there
We cope
With just seconds from
Sunrise
We're holding on
Through dark skies
Until we feel
That light
We all cope
Ooh, the blinds are closed
Doing anything it takes
To get you through the night
We all need hope
And until we're there
We cope
She polished every piece of silverware
Straightened all the kitchen chairs
Saying "I'm so close
But I'm not there, yet"
