  • Today is the greatest
    Day I ’ve ever kown
    Can’t live for tomorrow
    Tomorrow’s much too long
    I burn my eyes out
    Before I get out

    I wanted more
    Than life could ever grant
    Bored by the chore
    Of saving face

    Today is the greatest
    Day I have ever known
    Can’t wait for tomorrow
    I might not have that long
    I’ll tear my heart out
    Before I get out

    Pink ribbon scars
    That never forget
    I’ve tried so hard
    To cleanse these regrets
    My angel wings
    Were bruised and restrained
    My belly stings

    Today is
    Today is
    Today is
    The greatest day
    That I have ever known

    I want to turn you on
    I want to turn you round
    I want to turn you on
    I want to turn you

    Today is the greatest
    Today is the greatest day
    Today is the greatest day
    That I have ever known

     

    Smashing Pumpkins - early 90's - this song is as powerful to me now as it was then.  Probably more now.  Today is the greatest day because I have the chance to live as I was created to live.  I can serve other people.  I can try and not be selfish.  I can try and be Jesus to other people.  I can deal with where I fail, and try and fix things and move on.  I can be a great husband, today.  I can be a great son, today.  I can be a great brother, today.

    Today is the greatest day, I have ever known.  JVD
