Something Good for Once Songtext
von Chief State

I′ve been in this rut for days
Watch the world pass by in haze
And the better part of me knows if this melancholy
Doesn't subside it′s bound to get the best of me
(Best of me)

One more time and then I swear it's over
Quench my thirst and then I will get sober
You won't remember what I said
Cos I got you, I got you
Wrapped ′round my finger with my jaded intent


I thought I told you once
That you′d be better off without me
And yeah you called my bluff
That I don't care enough and I′m barely ever happy
I miss the times we had when I had time to be there for you
I convulse with guilt, then drown myself in beer
Try to rearrange my thoughts
Into something good for once

One more time and then I swear it's over
Quench my thirst and then I will get sober
You won′t remember what I said
Cos I got you, I got you
Wrapped 'round my finger with my jaded intent

Man, I should have been contented
But instead I felt resented
It′s a common feeling
I know you don't condone abuse
The stream of drugs that I misuse
In the aftermath there's a better path to choose


One more time and then I swear it′s over
Quench my thirst and then I will get sober
One more time and then I swear it′s over
Quench my thirst and then I will get sober
You won't remember what I said
Cos I got you, I got you
Wrapped ′round my finger with my jaded intent
