Sometimes — текст песни (Good Riddance)

When it`s time to start working to reconstruct
a life programmed to self-destruct
when it`s time to set your sights on something better
when all that you`ve known
is the emptiness of being alone
when friends start drifting away

sometimes
it`s better to let go
it only hurts to hold on to time worn memories
sometimes
it`s never what is seems
it only serves to break your will

I had a dream last night
that you and I got in a fight
I never meant to hurt you
but I guess it ended up that way
we went our seperate ways
and I stayed mad for six whole days
that`s when I realized when I`m alone
I`m in bad company

I want to help you
but you`ve got to want to help yourself
I don`t want to bury another friend
I take it day by day and watch the people I love just fade away
where`s the good in this?
whatever happened to you?
