I Wanna Get Better Lyrics by Bleachers
Hey I hear the voice
Of the preacher from the back room
Calling my name and
I follow just to find you
I trace the faith
To a broken down television
And put on the weather
And I've trained myself
To give up on the past
Cause I froze in time
Between hearses and caskets
Lost control when I
Panicked at the acid test
I wanna get better
While my friends were getting high
And chasing girls down parkway lines
I was losing my mind
Because the love
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 a night
And got carried away
So now I'm standing on the overpass
Screaming at the cars, hey
I wanna get better
I didn't know I was lonely
Til I saw your face
I wanna get better
Better, better, better
I wanna get better
I didn't know I was broken
Til I wanted to change
I wanna get better
Better, better, better
I wanna get better
I go up to my room
And there's girls on the ceiling
Cut out their pictures
And I chase that feeling
Of an eighteen year old
Who didn't know
What loss was
Now I'm a stranger
And I miss the days
Of a life still permanent
Mourn the years
Before I got carried away
So now I'm staring at the interstate
Screaming at myself, hey
I wanna get better
I didn't know I was lonely
Til I saw your face
I wanna get better
Better, better, better
I wanna get better
I didn't know I was broken
Til I wanted to change
I wanna get better
Better, better, better
I wanna get better
Cause I'm sleeping in the back of a taxi
I'm screaming from my bedroom window
Even if it's gonna kill me
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 should have put a helmet
And I crash my car
Cause I wanna get carried away
That's why I'm standing on the overpass
Screaming at myself, hey
I wanna get better
I didn't know I was lonely
Til I saw your face
I wanna get better
Better, better, better
I wanna get better
I didn't know I was broken
Til I wanted to change
I wanna get better
Better, better, better
I wanna get better
