Better Days 歌词

I was dancing with some kids In this house where I lived a couple lifetimes Maybe more We had the music up loud by that old leather couch Where I lost my best friend a couple years before On the front porch steps, I smoked a million cigarettes With every woman I loved and left The loudest house on the block The neighbors never called the cops But I don’t wanna test ‘em anymore I was down on the beach Just out of reach Of a freaked out kid learning to swim He was doing his best He was holding his breath as the water rose past his chest Sometimes I feel like I'm caught in a riptide That pulling me out to a watery grave Sometimes it feels like I’ve seen enough It’s all too much I feel like giving up on better days There was this guy that I knew We met when I was 22 In San Diego when I was on tour He was a real good dude Everyone was drawn to Like the ocean to the Moon I got the news that he died That he took his own life Left a beautiful wife and baby boy I may never understand the full measure of a man But this is what I’d tell him if he was here Sometimes it feels like you’re caught in a riptide Pulling you out to a watery grave Sometimes it feels like you’ve seen enough It’s all too much You feel like giving up Sometimes it feels like I'm stretched too thin How does anyone win in this race that we’re in Sometimes the going gets pretty rough But I'm hangin’ tough I'm not giving up on better days Better days
