Cole Eveland - Better This Way Lyrics

Hey I know you think that things are always gonna be the same
But it won't always be this way
You'll move on to better days

She's beat up
She's torn down
Inside a' there it is hostile
Shes cooped up
Shes locked in
So tight it's like she's a fossil.
She's withering away before she's had the chance to age
It's like the world is going cold and there's no way it's gonna change
But hey
It's okay
I know I've felt the same
Can't wait to end the day
Go to bed, everybody get out the way
It's time to pray
F*ck the pain
Hope god takes me away
I hope he burns the place
Too bad it's not like anybody ever f*ckin' wanted me anyway

But I'm still here and I'm still fightin' I'm still strivin'
And I never gave up and I'm still hype and I'm still strikin'
Sometimes you gotta look into the future
Some days you gotta rip out all your sutures

Hey I know you think that things are gonna be the same
But you won't always feel this way
You'll move on to better days
Yeah
And I know that sometimes you look back on what was yesterday
And you don't have to feel ashamed
You won't always feel this way

These younger ones they have the shoes too big for us to walk in
They learn a thing or two from all the shit that we've been talkin'
Evaluating everything, the doors that we're unlockin'
But we don't even notice cause we're tryin' to get clocked in
The glock in his bedroom
And he's at home cause he skipped school
Standin' on the edge, he pulls the trigger but it don't shoot
Wonderin' if god had maybe thought that it was too soon
To go at this alone, but no one's home for him to talk to
He sat down on his bed
Heard a voice up in his head
For a second he wondered if maybe he was really dead
Put his head in his hands
Heard the voice of a man
Ringin' out as clear as day he swears that this is what he said

Hey I know you think that things are always gonna be the same
But it won't always be this way
You'll move on to better days
Yeah
And I know that sometimes you'll look back on what was yesterday
But you don't have to feel ashamed
Cause you won't always feel this way

It is my destiny
I'll never let another 'mother get the best of me
Especially
Now that I met you
I remember all the shit that I've been through
It's time to realize that there is only one thing that I'm left to do
I hope that you
Chase the truth
That's chasin' you
And utilize that you're livin' proof.

Hey I know you think that things are always gonna be the same
But it won't always be this way
You'll move on to better days

Hey I know you think that things are always gonna be the same
But it won't always be this way
You'll move on to better days
And I know that sometimes you look back on what was yesterday
But you don't have to feel ashamed
Cause you won't always feel this way
