Some days I couldn't get up

I couldn't get down

I'm bored of everything

Somehow a little black cloud rained over me

Someone was making me mad

Good turned bad and I lose everything

To get you back

Just to get you back.

But

These days the world's alright

The sun shines bright

I'm kicking off the bad dreams

These days I don't think twice

Walk on light

I'm positively somewhere.

These days go on long after you've gone

These days go on long after you've gone

These days go on and on and on and on and on.

Out of the fire into the swimming pool

Sometimes I drown my tears

Same old fears came back

Someone was making me ill

I bet you're still

A two, three, four litter word

Guess you heard

Pretty little birds fly home.

But

These days the sun kicks in

The good guys win

I'm legal in the back seat

These days I'm safe and sound

Not dragged down

You wanna know the reason.

These days go on long after you've gone

These days go on long after you've gone

These days go on and on and on and on and on.

Thank you for not being here

I feel better when you're not sleeping in my head

Tossin' and turnin' an' messin' up the sheets

The love we made was incomplete

Like the shoes on your feet

The same stuff I've heard it before

That philosophy's starting to bore me

Now you won't have to smile and ignore me.

These days the karma's right

The sun shines bright

I'm kicking out the bad dreams

These days I don't think twice

Walk on light

I'm positively somewhere.

These days go on (and on and on and on and on)

These days go on (and on and on and on and on)

These days go on (and on and on and on and on)
