Some Days

Some days are better than others
Some days, I miss my mother
Some years make me feel like I've lived ten
We get through the Christmas cheer
And think of who we lost that year
The whole damn thing rolls 'round again

Look in the mirror and
All I see is my old man
Staring back at me every day
'Cause every time I speak out loud
I only try to make him proud
I think I know just what he'd say
He'd say

Some days are better than others
Some friends I see as brothers
Some days, you need to talk to other men
If you worry about what people say
You're gonna worry your life away, son
Just ain't worth it in the end
I hear the bell, I'm in the ring
Bitter tears like punches sting
And laid me lower than I've been before
I swerve and weave and get back up
I must remember how to duck
When trouble comes a-knocking at my door

Step by step, I'm still learning
Won't stop 'til the day I die
I know my spirit is returning
But for a while there, I didn't wanna try, 'cause

Some days are better than others
Some days, I really miss my mother
She made me the man I am
If I worry about what people say
I'm gonna worry my life away
Just ain't worth it in the end
Some days are better than others, my friend

Mm
Some days are better than others, my friend
