I Wanna Get Better - 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 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
