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

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
