hoping for a piece of something easy to believe

so i was walking to campus yesterday, listening to my ipod and had it on "shuffle." yesterday was an all-around rough day, lots happened, i had a ton to do as far as schoolwork is considered and i was freezing. so anyways, this song came on and i listened to the words and began crying. i know, i'm such a girl. it's called "barely out of Tuesday" by the Counting Crows.

Woke up to this morning, staring at the ceiling hoping for deliverance
from the distances in you.
This room feels like an oven somewhere south of nowhere, north of nothing
barely out of Tuesday.
Seen seven hours of Wednesday and I guess got regrets.
Maybe you could leave a light on, leave a light on for me.
Can you see her waiting there down by the sea with a hat on,
with her eyes in there looking for me?
If you see me coming home turn me away.
Everybody tries to go back somewhere someday.
Won't you give me the distance?
52 weeks later, you're still the same.
I'm standing im my basement making my arrangements waiting for the telephone
to ring
to ring
to ring.
So I left for Minnesota where the weather is getting colder, people are changing.
Maybe you could leave a light on leave a light on for me.
Can you see her waiting there down by the sea
and how arrangements made there for welcoming me?
If you see me coming home turn me away.
Everybody tries to go back somewhere someday.
And for all this distance ain't going to bring you to me.
What's the point of all this patience?
It's not your nature.
You just keep what you need and you got some pictures of me.
Woke up Wednesday morning, sometime Wednesday evening...
hoping for a piece of something easy to believe.
We live out on the border of everything and nothing.
There's nothing but waking and dreaming.
Barely out of Tuesday, there's no one to receive me.
Nothing is changing.
Maybe you could leave a light on, leave a light on for me.
Can you see her, waiting there down by the sea?
There's a light on but there's nobody waiting for me.
If you see me coming home turn me away.
Everybody tries to go back somewhere someday...
