Some Other Day

I can hardly tell what's broken

Anymore, it all seems like a lie

How could I ever trust another if I can't even trust myself sometimes?

Well he was my favorite lover

and he made me want to be his wife

Guess I'll just have to recover

Doesn't always work out when you try

Maybe if you'd see it my way, you would not add injury to insult

And if I could see it your way, I would get more sleep and feel less at fault

Nothing left now for to wish on since the stars are clouded out by fire

And our sad history's playing out again, this story's getting tired

Why don't you look the other way, 'cause I can see it on your face

That you might want something from me, but I've got nothing

Well maybe on some other day or at another time and place

But it could be a long, long while and I won't make a promise I might break

I bet if you play your cards right

Made the best of all that you've been granted

Maybe work that third shift overnight

You still would come out empty-handed

I only pledge allegiance to myself and to my lovely mother

And since we're not dead still somehow

We surely must be stronger

Why don't you look the other way, 'cause I can see it on your face

That you might want something from me, but I've got nothing

Well maybe on some other day or at another time and place

But it could be a long, long while and I won't make a promise I might break

Why don't you look the other way, 'cause I can see it on your face

That you might want something from me, but I've got nothing

Well maybe on some other day or at another time and place

But it could be a long, long while and I won't make a promise I might break

So when I'm lying underneath don't go crying for me, please

Rest assured that I have found some peace and quiet finally
