Cythra/Better Than Sometimes

Better Than Sometimes

  Sometimes, I miss her so bad.
  Sometimes, I feel so sad.
  Sometimes, I think I'll go mad.
  But I'm feeling better than sometimes.

  Sometimes, I feel so much pain,
  Sometimes, in my heart and my brain.
  Sometimes, it's really a drain.
  But I'm feeling better than sometimes.

  She is the girl I adore.
  The one with the sparkling eyes.
  She's who I live my life for.

  She is my paradise.
  She can make my heart soar,
  Lifting me up to the skies.

  But today's not one of those sometimes.

  Sometimes, I miss her so bad.
  Sometimes, I feel so sad.
  Sometimes, I think I'll go mad.
  

  Everyday is one of those sometimes.

Conception Notes:

A kind person once wrote that this song resonated. A wonderful compliment which I appreciate and take to heart.
The ending however was mistaken as acceptance. It isn't acceptance, it's a confession. Despite my brave face, I'm not feeling better than sometimes. Everyday is a struggle.

I think this is possibly my best song title.
This is another instance where the title just popped into my head at some point and the song eventually followed.
