Not Today Lyrics - Alessia Cara

[Verse 1] 

Someday I won't be afraid of my head 

Someday I will not be chained to my bed 

Someday I'll forget the day he left 

But surely not today 

One day I won't need a PhD 

To sit me down and tell me what it all means 

Maybe one day it'll be a breeze 

But surely not today, but surely not today 

[Chorus] 

Oh you don't know what sadness means 

'Till you're too sad to fall asleep 

One day I'll be snoozing peacefully 

But surely not today, surely not today

[Verse 2] 

One day I'll swear the pain will be a blip 

I'll have the hardest time recalling it 

I'll be the king of misery management 

But surely not today 

One day that song won't make me cry anymore (oh no no) 

One day I'll get up off the bathroom floor (hey yeah) 

Oh, piece by piece I'll be restored 

But surely not today, surely not 

Eh, not today 

[Chorus] 

Oh you don't know what happy means 

If it's only in your dreams 

I'll be acquainted with my jollities 

But surely not today, yeah surely not today 

[Bridge] 

Surely not-, surely, surely not- 

Surely not-, surely not today

[Chorus] 

One day the thought of him won't hurt the same 

Won't need distractions to get through the day 

I guess I hope I'm gonna be okay 

'Cause I'm not today
