grace petrie - some days are worse than others lyrics

[verse 1]
i used to think i’d change the world if i could write a song
good enough to make you see the truth
but everything i touch has turned to ruin and gone wrong
and i can’t believe the arrogance of youth
i know the world is turning when it feels like standing still
or slipping ever backwards by degrees
it feels like i’m always dying on the least productive hill
and i haven’t even planted any trees

[pre+chorus]
but all my chords, all of my g major chords
you know they couldn’t move the house of lords
and all i felt, all the pain i ever felt
you know it never stopped thе ice caps melt

[chorus]
some days this world
it makеs me hide beneath the covers
but some days are worse than others

[verse 2]
i used to think my heart was so reliable and strong
steady ‘neath your feet as frozen ground
believing all the promises of poetry and song
i never dreamt how far i’d let you down
and i know i am remembered for the shattering of dreams
and never all the time i held the roof
our fossilised worst moments held forever in extremes
and i console myself with versions of the truth
[pre+chorus]
for all i gave, all i told myself i gave
i really thought that i was being brave
for all i swore, ever steady, ever more
it comes to nothing if you’re keeping score

[chorus]
some nights i can
answer the charges of those lovers
some nights are worse than others
some nights are worse than others

[verse 3]
i used to think my stories were the place i could be known
and told them without having to pretend
now finally old enough to know that i’m not fully grown
i see that i don’t know how they will end
the skins i shed, the roads i tread, the ways that i have fared
they’ve turned me into someone not the same
some days i feel the anchor of the years that we have shared
but some days i can only feel the chain

[pre+chorus]
and it washes off, yeah it all just washes off
and my arms will always be too soft
i understand, maybe i finally understand
that i might never know just who i am
[chorus]
some days i still
wake up jealous of my brothers
some days are worse than others

[chorus]
some days i still
wanna hide beneath the covers
wonder how we will recover
search the eyes of friends and lovers
for a sign of my true colours
but some days are worse
some days are worse than others
