against the current - i wanna get better lyrics
[verse 1]
hey, i hear the voice of a 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 he-rs-s and caskets
lost control when i panicked at the acid test
i wanna get better
[verse 2]
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 the night and got carried away
[pre-chorus]
so now i’m standing on the overp-ss screaming at the cars
“hey, i wanna get better!”
[chorus]
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
[verse 3]
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
and now i’m a stranger
and i miss the days of a life still permanent
mourn the years before i got carried away
[pre-chorus]
so now i’m staring at the interstate screaming at myself
“hey, i wanna get better!”
[chorus]
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
[bridge]
better, ’cause i’m sleeping in the back of a taxi
i’m screaming from my bedroom window
even if it’s gonna k!ll me
[verse 4]
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 put a helmet
and i crash my car cause i wanna get carried away
[pre-chorus]
that’s why i’m standing on the overp-ss screaming at myself
“hey, i wanna get better!”
[chorus]
i wanna get better, better, better, better
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
