I SEEN BETTER DAYS

Oh, when I look at you
I see the unloving things about you,
I want to love you
But how can I love someone as you
That acts so cruel,

I need you
Yet, I truly don’t,
I just live in a confusing world,
I thought at one time in my unstable mind,
I thought I loved you,

that I could help you change your evil ways,
Oh, how I needed it to be true
Because I thought I truly loved you,
I needed you
No matter what others tried to tell me about you,

At one time that all I wanted to think about
Was only you,
Oh, but now, I truly changed my mind,
Now that I am walking in a healthy mind,
Now I cry all the time to get you out of my head,

You make me so crazy with your evil always,
No matter what I do
You are always there,
Oh, I have seen better day when you are not in them.
