Better Life

When I drive to fast and hit a wall,

Or drink myself to the hospital,

I'm the only one to blame

And as sirens haunt my city streets

And though that sound is after me

Calmly I await the change

So don't wait for the world to get better

You're gonna waste the time you have

And you won't get it back

When you fall, when you break, when you wish you didn't feel

Keep our head, don't forget, it's the pain that makes us real

I know most of the time

It's hard to keep in mind

From lessons learned

Comes better life, better life

When I play too hard and break my bones

Depress myself to the lowest lows

I'm the only one to blame

Cause the choice is mine and mine alone,

And I choose to learn as I go

Clarity will come from pain

So don't wait for the world to get better

You're gonna waste the time you have

And you won't get it back

When you fall, when you break, when you wish you didn't feel

Keep our head, don't forget, it's the pain that makes us real

I know most of the time

It's hard to keep in mind

From lessons learned

Comes better life, better life

So don't wait for the world to get better (2x)

My understanding of the world feels broken

And it's demanding my immediate attention

You're looking up

Believing you will leave your problems below

Forget what you believe

Use what you know

When you fall, when you break, when you wish you didn't feel

Keep our head, don't forget, it's the pain that makes us real

I know most of the time

It's hard to keep in mind

From lessons learned

Comes better life, better life.
