These Days

[Verse 1] I think I was better off Before this all began So clearly, I can see lately That you don't know who I am Everybody tried to tell me something That I never could believe Staring back, it seems so much different Than it did in front of me [Pre-Chorus 1] But I know there's no good In lookin' back on yesterday And wondering what could Have happened then [Chorus] You think you can give me what I want You say, you say "I think I'm better off alone These days, these days" [Verse 2] Why should I put my trust in something That I never could believe? So one day, you can find something better Just to pack your things and leave? Loneliness is a friend for the moment But she won't walk out on me [Pre-Chorus 2] And I know there's no good In lookin' back on yesterday And wondering what could Have happened then [Chorus] You think you can give me what I want You say, you say "I think I'm better off alone These days, these days" [Bridge] I'm tired and I'm sick of waiting Maybe I'll die alone But I can't take another damn day Of waiting here for you to come home to me Yeah, yeah, baby, baby, please Tell me why [Chorus] You think you can give me what I want You say, you say "I think I'm better off alone These days, these days" You think you can give me what I want You say, you say "I think I'm better off alone These days, these days"
