[Intro] How long can a bad mood ride? Not all day. Not all day. [Verse 1] Same small spark in the same old place, Jaw locked tight and a hard-set face. I try to shove it out the door, It circles back across the floor. Every little thing gets under my skin, I lose the day before it can begin. [Pre-Chorus] I don't need a lucky break To feel my grip begin to shake. One slow breath, feet on the ground— I can turn this train around. [Chorus] Angry train, you don't own my day! I can feel you—and still choose my way. Not a pretty face, not a profit sign, Has to be the thing that makes me fine. Angry train, roll on through! I’ve got one small thing I can do. [Verse 2] Maybe someone smiles and says hello, Maybe numbers climb, maybe they don't. I can't make either one arrive, But I can choose how I stay alive. Step outside, let the shoulders drop, Name what's wrong, then let it stop. Not every thought deserves the wheel; Not every flare is what I feel. [Pre-Chorus] I don't need a perfect day For one good moment to find its way. Water, daylight, call a friend— A rough hour still can bend. [Chorus] Angry train, you don't own my day! I can feel you—and still choose my way. Not a pretty face, not a profit sign, Has to be the thing that makes me fine. Angry train, roll on through! I’ve got one small thing I can do. [Breakdown] What can I change? (One next step!) What can I leave? (Not yet!) What do I need? (A little space!) I don't have to win this race! [Bridge] If it keeps coming back, I can ask for help, I don't have to sort it out all by myself. A steady hand, a practiced plan, Small enough to start where I am. [Final Chorus] Angry train, you don't own my day! I can feel you—and still choose my way. Not a pretty face, not a profit sign, Has to be the thing that makes me fine. Angry train, roll on through! I’ve got one small thing I can do. One small thing. One next step. I can make a little room to breathe. [Outro] Not all day. Not all day. I can choose my way.
