At the End of the Day

[Verse 1]
I made a rod
It was for my own back
At the time I could not see it
But now it is clear
I rattle my brain for words
That I thought I knew as certainly
As my own name
But they are disappeared

[Chorus 1]
What does it mean
Does it mean anything
What does it mean
At the end of the day

[Verse 2]
What words were they
And how careless and arrogant was I
To think I owned them
Without giving them the respect
Of being born onto a page
Gently by my own pen
Where they would stay
And live again and again and again

[Chorus 2]
What was it for
Was it for anything
What was it for
At the end of the day

[Chorus 1]
What does it mean
Does it mean anything
What does it mean
At the end of the day

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus 2]
What was it for
Was it for anything
What was it for
At the end of the day

[Chorus 1]
What does it mean
Does it mean anything
What does it mean
At the end of the day

[Verse 3]
You live where you lived
You sit where you sat
Nothing seems to have changed
At the end of the day

[Outro]
At the end of the day
At the end of the day
