Lyrics to Better Days

[Verse 1]

Do you ever want to waste away

Recounting better times?

I'm with you

Is this all we have left to live with?

I only wanna get by

So with that, I don't mind getting by

Reliving moments lived 'til my last breath



[Pre-Chorus]

Do you get it?

Suffocating, can't breathe, but you've got a fucking mouth to feed

Never made the effort to change or go out of our way



[Chorus]

You follow your sorrows

For better days we've waited for how long, how long?

You follow your sorrows

We spiral downward endlessly

But is the bottom where we're meant to be?



[Verse 2]

Is anybody listening?

Can anybody tell me why I can't get up?

Why can't I get up?

Down on my knees as the world comes falling down

My fear chained to the ground for my will is weak

And my state is bleak



[Bridge]

But I'm bound to break free

Pride running through my veins

My chains lay flat around me

My chains lay flat around me

How long do we endure the pain?

How long 'til we accept?



[Chorus]

You follow your sorrows

For better days we've waited for how long, how long?

You follow your sorrows

We spiral downward endlessly

But is the bottom where we're meant to be?



[Post-Chorus]

This isn't where we're meant to be

We spiral endlessly



[Outro]

You follow your sorrows (Do you get it?)

For better days we've waited for how long, how long? (Suffocating, can't breathe, but you've got a fucking mouth to feed)

(Never made the effort to change or go out of our way)

You follow your sorrows (Is anybody listening? Are you listening?)

We spiral downward endlessly

But is the bottom where we're meant to be?
