Yesterday (Better Day)




I’m screaming myself out once again.
Oh God, how could you cause so much pain?
I don’t care how long it’s been,
Or how much I may have changed;
I still need you like I did yesterday.

I thought the agony would fade, not explode.
But no, they’re all wrong and I wanna implode.
I don’t care about shit I’m sold,
Because I’ll never get over you;
I can never let go of yesterday.

Take me back, take me back,
Back to a better day,
Back to yesterday,
When you were by my side.
Just come back, just come back,
But I know you never will;
Forever trapped in yesterday.

And now the rain is spitting down in hate.
All because my apologies came too late.
I don’t care about angels,
They’re not looking down on me;
Not after all I did in yesterday.

This feels like war but bullets don’t hurt.
I refuse to trust anymore, always alert.
I don’t care about this life,
The one you left me to wilt in;
All I care about is yesterday.

Take me back, take me back,
Back to a better day,
Back to yesterday,
When you were by my side.
Just come back, just come back,
But I know you never will;
Forever trapped in yesterday.

I wasn’t there,
But that doesn’t mean,
I didn’t care.
I never let you in,
But that doesn’t mean,
I got to win.

I ran away,
When you needed me,
I should burn in Hell,
For yesterday.
Dying today,
Burning away,
For what I did yesterday.

Dying today,
Burning away,
For what I did yesterday.

Take me back, take me back,
Back to a better day,
Back to yesterday,
When you were still by my side.
Please come back, just come back,
But I know you never will;
Forever trapped in what I didn’t say.
Damned to wait for,
Yesterday.

Eternally burning for,
Damned to wait for;
Yesterday.





A/N: Thank you very much for reading and I hope that this was alright. I know that there is very little rhythm to this, but I did try really hard with the lyrics and tried to put as much emotion into as possible as this was a kind of vent of sorts. This is inspired by “4:AM Forever” by lostprophets, “You Might Have Noticed” by The Academy Is… and, mostly, by my own experiences. Anyway, sorry for droning on but thanks for reading and please let me know what you think.
