Days

The pan is hot, I watch the oil spill
Think about putting my hand in it
Feeling something's better than numbness
Hey now, baby, ain't always like this

But I have days (I have days)
I have days (I have days)
The days that look like mouths that just can't wait to spit me out
Yes, I have days (I have days)
Yes, I have days (I have days)

When everything out there is like a doorway to despair
Yes, I have days, days, days that I could do without
And I wonder which one's gonna take me down

On my block, I watch the children play
Chances are they'll feel like this one day
Innocence, it's just a bridge to pain
Hey now, babe, it ain't always so gray

But I have days (I have days)
I have days (I have days)
Days that look like mouths that just can't wait to spit me out
Yes, I have days (I have days)
Yes, I have days (I have days), oh

Mid-up of the moments on each one, it's like I'm choking
I have days, days, days that I could do without
And I wonder which one's gonna take me down
Down, down, down, down, down (do without)
Down, down, down, down, down
That's where I've always learnt to pick myself up off the ground
Down, down, down, down, down

But I have days, yes, I have days (days)
Days that look like mouths that just can't wait to spit me out
Yes, I have days (I have days)
Yes, I have days (I have days)
When everything out there is like a doorway to despair
Yes, I have days (I have days)
Yes, I have days

Days that look like mouths that just can't wait to spit me out
Yes, I have days (I have days)
Yes, I have days (I have days)
Mid-up of the moments on each one, it's like I'm choking
But I have days, days, days that I could do without
But I never, ever let 'em take me down
