Lyrics
Better Times
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I want you to know the truth
'cause I've been around before
Thought I was looking anymore
Been a fool for weeks
'cause my heart stands for nothing and your soul's too weak
Got a will that's been around for days
Goes far if you want it
It needs to behave
But then you, you come around
Big mistake
I don't want to know
We don't need a sign to know better times
Running around 'cause you beat yourself up
And you made a crack and the one that you love is gone
How much longer can you play with fire before you turn into a liar?
I've been around before
Thought you weren't looking anymore
But then we, we come and go, go up in smoke
I don't want to know
We don't need a sign to know better times
