Down by the lake, there's fish who break
Each wave, break through
Who knows where to
Tides change, spray flies
No air, fish dies
Lay flat, skin gleamed
It was never how it seemed
And it seems that ideals always let down
To escape to the spray from the sky
Ideals are always at odds with what is real
Day to day
Day to day
Day to day
Today
Down by the lake, there's a man who stakes
His power to swim
Closes his eyes, dives in
Rivers change, spray flies
No air, man dies
Lay flat, skin gleamed
It was never how it seemed
And it seems that ideals always let him down
As he plunged in the haze of his fix
Ideals are always at odds with what is real
Day to day
Day to day
Day to day
Today
Down by the lake, that's where we'll break
For screams, pure cries
Look at all the passers-by
Old timers gather round
Never went far out of town
Gather round and see
This twisted wreck, this apathy
And it seems that ideals always let us down
As we grind to another full stop
Ideals are always at odds with what is real
Day to day
Day to day
Day to day
Today
Today
Today
