hey i hear the voice of a preacher
from the back room
calling my name n i follow just to find u
i trace the faith
to a broken down television
and put on the weather
n ive trained myself to give up on the past
cause i frozen time
between hearses and caskets
lost control when i panicked
at the acid test i wanna get better
while my friends were getting high
n chasing girls down parkway lines
i was losing my mind
cause the love the love the love the love
the love that i gave wasted on a nice face
in a blaze of fear i put a helmet
on a helmet counting seconds
through the night and got carried away
so now Im standing on the overpass
screaming at the cars
hey I wanna get better
i didnt know i was lonely til i saw ur face
i wanna get better
i didnt know i was broken
til i wanted to change
i wanna get better
i go up to my room
and theres girls on the ceiling
cut out their pictures n i chase
that feeling of an eighteen year old
who didnt know what loss was
now im a stranger
n i miss the days of a life still permanent
mourn the years before i got carried away
so now im staring at the interstate
screaming at myself
hey i wanna get better
i didnt know i was lonely til i saw ur face
i wanna get better
i didnt know i was broken
til i wanted to change
i wanna get better
cause Im sleeping in the back of a taxi
im screaming from my bedroom window
even if its gonna kill me
interlude to moonn6pence from papayeverte
woke up this morning
early before my family
from this dream where she was trying
to show me how a life can move
from the darkness she said to get better
so i put a bullet
where i shoulda out a helmet
and i crash my car
cause i wanna get carried away
thats why im standing on the
overpass screaming at myself
hey I WANNA GET BETTER
i didnt know i was lonely til i saw ur face
i wanna get better
i didnt know i was broken
til i wanted to change
i wanna get better
i wanna get better
