Waitin’, watchin’ the clock
It’s four o’clock
It’s got to stop
Tell him, take no more, she practices her speech
As he opens the door, she rolls over
Pretends to sleep as he looks her over
She lies and says she’s in love with him
Can’t find a better man
She dreams in colour
She dreams in red
Can’t find a better man
Talkin’ to herself
There’s no one else who needs to know
She tells herself
Memories back when she was bold and strong
And waiting for the world to come along
Swears she knew it
Now she swears he’s gone
~ some lyrics from Better Man, by Pearl Jam
