Some days I couldn't get up couldn't get down
  I'm bored of everything
  Somehow a little black cloud would rain over me
  Someone was making me mad good turned bad
  And I'd lose everything to get you back
  Just to get you back but...
  
  These days the world's alright
  The sun shines bright
  I'm kicking out the dreams
  These days I don't think twice
  I walk on ice
  I'm positively somewhere
  
  (chorus)
  These days go on
  Long after you've gone
  These days go on
  Long after you've gone
  These days go on and on...
  
  I'm out of the fire and into the swimming pool
  Sometimes I'd drown my tears
  But the same old fears come back
  Someone's been making me ill
  I bet you're still a 2,3,4 letter word
  Yes, you heard the pretty little birds fly home, cause...
  
  These days
  The sun kicks in
  The good guys win
  I'm illegal in the back seat
  These days I'm safe and sound
  Not dragged down
  You wanna know the reason?
  
  repeat chorus
  
  Thank you for not being here
  I feel better when you're not sleeping in my head
  Tossing and turning an' messing up the sheets
  The love we made was incomplete
  Like the shoes on your feet
  Same stuff I've heard before
  That philosophy starting to bore me now
  Now you won't have to smile and ignore me
  
  These days the karma's right
  The sun shines bright
  I'm kicking out the bad dreams
  These days I don't think twice
  I walk on light
  I'm positively somewhere
