Better Days
Intro
Ooh, etc. (chorus melody)
Today I feel death could only end,
And joy is something I'll never know again,
My eyes are blinded and I only see the pain,
Such a sunny day but all I feel is rain,
Chorus
I've seen better days go by,
Days I felt I could touch the sky,
But the sun it falls and another rises high,
Just another memory of a better time,
What doesn't kill me makes me stronger still,
Want to give it up but somehow I find the will,
I tell myself that what I feel won't last,
Just like better days this one too will pass,
Chorus
I've seen better days go by,
Days I felt I could touch the sky,
But the sun it falls and another rises high,
Another memory of a better time,
Bridge
What have I done? How could I not see this?
Time after time I'll bear the consequence,
I'm nothing more than pure humanity,
I only wish I had the eyes to see,
