Better Lyrics - Singles - Good Riddance

there's no sense waiting in this state 

i've realized too late 

there's only so much left inside 

only so much space to hide 

i've dreamed of castles in the air 

but i've never found out where 

i need a break or a vacation 

before i give myself a scare 

don't try to understand me your logic won't command me 

don't try to read between my mind 

if i could kill you with a touch 

i'd never hate this much 

one thousand colors every day 

but all i see is grey 

my history is plagiarized 

i feel desensitized 

maybe one more shot of reason 

will ripple this disguise 

i told that man just what i thought of him 

so i'm right where i am tied to this bed 

subconsciously restrained and now i wish i hadn't said 

what i said to both of my parents because i made my mother cry 

if they'd only wait i'll make it up to them because i can be a better man
