I Didn't See My Name

[Verse 1] Woke up this morning, Seemed natural as before Coffee hot and the cereal creamed, Same routine, same old décor It is my birthday — Nothing’s changed, far as I can tell Picked up the paper just to check If life had rung its final bell [Chorus] No, I didn’t see my name On that Obit door today Still here, still kickin’, Guess I get one more play Coffee’s hot, sun’s up, Life’s still callin’ my name — If the page stays empty, I’m still in the game [Verse 2] Another year, another laugh, I’m still beating back the clock The page was blurry, But I’m sure I wasn’t on the chopping block Another cup of coffee, Maybe even two — Damn it, still can’t tie my shoes, But breathing’s something I can do [Bridge] Aches and groans a little deeper, But the heart still keeps its beat Life’s a stubborn old companion Who refuses to leave its seat So here I stand, Still part of the game — Grinning at the universe ’Cause it didn’t print my name [Chorus] No, I didn’t see my name, Everything feels the same Another sunrise earned, Another chapter to claim Keep the coffee pouring, Keep the daylight true — If the page stays empty, I’ve got living left to do [Outro] [Instrumental]
