"Better Days" lyrics

I can't understand a thing you're trying to say
When you talk to me you turn the other way
And this ain't what you said you wanted yesterday
When everything was new

If a minor complication gets you down
You'll be quick to hesitate when loves around
No matter who it is you think you're loving now
I'll always sing for you

When we got high
We got stoned
We got everything we need we had a home
But we got sick
And we got trashed
I'd do anything you need if you'd just ask
The better days are past

In the morning comes a song I never heard
When you sing to me there's fire in every word
For I try hard to keep my skin from getting burned
But nothing seems to work

As the daylight fades we slip back into sheets
Laying side by side a million miles between
Now you're acting like you don't know what I mean
When I say I'm feeling strange

When we got high
We got stoned
We got everything we need we had a home
But we got sick
And we got trashed
I'd do anything you need if you'd just ask
The better days are past

I'll take your picture down
It's too late to fix this now
One day I'll wonder how
Someone who once gave me life
Can make me feel like fucking dying

When we got high
We got stoned
We got everything we need we had a home
But we got sick
And we got trashed
I'd do anything you need if you'd just ask
The better days are past...
