These Days Songtext
Says, "Some nights I just lie awake"
Says, "Sometimes I just sleep for days"
Smokes another cigarette and looks around the room
What are these days coming to?
Says, "It seems I′ve been screwed over again
But that's okay, the hand needs friends
It′s just easier to pretend
Stay at dawn, can't watch for the end"
"One more night," is all she thinks
"I won't come back," but I′m too weak
Those things he says to me
"One more night and then I′ll leave"
She walks in one second too soon
Silence then covers the room
Looks at him in disarray
Says, "I'm not sorry," and turns away
Says, "I′m tired of hearing you bitch
You're nothing more than a stupid trick
Not even worth the price I pay
Get out of my life, get out of my way"
"One more night," is all she thinks
"I won′t come back," but I'm too weak
Those things he says to me
"One more night and then I′ll leave"
You know you know about me
I look up at my destiny
Twenty-one steps, I'll finally be free
He says, "If you want my help
I'll give you that extra step"
She just turns and walks back to their bed
"One more night," is all she thinks
"I won′t come back," but I′m too weak
Those things he says to me
"One more night and then I'll—"
"One more night," is all she thinks
"Won′t come back," but I'm too weak
Those things he says to me
"One more night and then I′ll leave"
Says, "Sometimes I just sleep for days"
Smokes another cigarette and looks around the room
What are these days coming to?
Says, "It seems I′ve been screwed over again
But that's okay, the hand needs friends
It′s just easier to pretend
Stay at dawn, can't watch for the end"
"One more night," is all she thinks
"I won't come back," but I′m too weak
Those things he says to me
"One more night and then I′ll leave"
She walks in one second too soon
Silence then covers the room
Looks at him in disarray
Says, "I'm not sorry," and turns away
Says, "I′m tired of hearing you bitch
You're nothing more than a stupid trick
Not even worth the price I pay
Get out of my life, get out of my way"
"One more night," is all she thinks
"I won′t come back," but I'm too weak
Those things he says to me
"One more night and then I′ll leave"
You know you know about me
I look up at my destiny
Twenty-one steps, I'll finally be free
He says, "If you want my help
I'll give you that extra step"
She just turns and walks back to their bed
"One more night," is all she thinks
"I won′t come back," but I′m too weak
Those things he says to me
"One more night and then I'll—"
"One more night," is all she thinks
"Won′t come back," but I'm too weak
Those things he says to me
"One more night and then I′ll leave"
