Counting the Days Lyrics
Wake up, go to work, come home... it's not working
We've been living our whole lives on a system that is broken
Your words, I hear them
They're sharp, can't get near them
We've got one last chance
One more time to make this happen
We got one time, time to get this right
Two timing, you know it's not my style
Three's company, just you and me
We need to figure this one out
Four letters words are all you said
Five minutes later we're in bed
I can't count on you to love me
But I can count the days since you've been gone
Break up, I come home
I realise that it's not working
You're gone, it echoes
I miss the noise of all our fighting
And you know that I don't mean a word I say
And I know that you don't wanna stay away
How long am I gonna be counting the days you're gone?
We got one time, time to get this right
Two timing and you know it's not my style
Three's company, just you and me
We need to figure this one out
Four letters words are all you said
Five minutes later we're in bed
I can't count on you to love me
But I can count the days since you've been gone
Ever since I saw you, there was no-one else
Just you and me
You were all that I could see
But I've got this problem
Don't know how to say what I mean
What I mean
We got one time, time to get this right
Two time and you know it's not my style
Three's company, just you and me
We need to figure this one out
We got one time, time to get this right
Two timing and you know it's not my style
Three's company, just you and me
We need to figure this one out
Four letters words are all you said
Five minutes later we're in bed
I can't count on you to love me
But I can count the days since you've been gone
I can count the days since you've been gone
Wake up, go to work, come home... it's not working
We've been living our whole lives on a system that is broken
We've been living our whole lives on a system that is broken
Your words, I hear them
They're sharp, can't get near them
We've got one last chance
One more time to make this happen
Two timing, you know it's not my style
Three's company, just you and me
We need to figure this one out
Four letters words are all you said
Five minutes later we're in bed
I can't count on you to love me
But I can count the days since you've been gone
I realise that it's not working
You're gone, it echoes
I miss the noise of all our fighting
And you know that I don't mean a word I say
And I know that you don't wanna stay away
How long am I gonna be counting the days you're gone?
Two timing and you know it's not my style
Three's company, just you and me
We need to figure this one out
Four letters words are all you said
Five minutes later we're in bed
I can't count on you to love me
But I can count the days since you've been gone
Just you and me
You were all that I could see
But I've got this problem
Don't know how to say what I mean
What I mean
Two time and you know it's not my style
Three's company, just you and me
We need to figure this one out
Two timing and you know it's not my style
Three's company, just you and me
We need to figure this one out
Four letters words are all you said
Five minutes later we're in bed
I can't count on you to love me
But I can count the days since you've been gone
We've been living our whole lives on a system that is broken

Feeling insecure in a relationship.
Feeling that you are not moving anywhere though there is this illusion of a non-stop process (wake up, go to work, come home...).
Feeling like you can't explain it to each other: 'your words, I hear them' (but don't give any real attention), and I myself 'got this problem, don't know how to say what I mean'

Just to add on to what you said. :) She is insecure about the relationship. He doesn't tell her what he feels about her and she thinks he has strayed/cheated or will soon.

The very first part "Your words, I hear them This shot can't get near them"
Should be: "Your words, I hear them THEY'RE SHARP, can't get near them"
Also in the chorus "We got one time, time to get this right Two time and you know it's not my style"
It should be: "We got one time, time to get this right TWO TIMIN', you know it's not my style"
