Lyric discussion by wheaties409 

Cover art for Better Days lyrics by Goo Goo Dolls, The

this is probably the goo goo doll's most mainstreamed song yet ...it seems that Rzeznik has matured even more in his lyrics... it's hard to believe that the same guy that was begging someone "don't beat my ass with a baseball bat"...has matured to someone who wishes "everyone was loved tonight and we somehow stopped this endless fight"...to this day i haven't heard a song by the goos that i haven't liked, whether it be punk or mainstream (which i can say about few other bands)... overall an excellent, and moving, song
