lyrics

Sometimes I feel like I'm flailing
Getting close to that railing
On a train that is breaking down

Maybe I'm in need of a Savior
or a just change in behavior
but I am stuck here as losses mount

Stuck in between here
What’s now and next year
can't see beyond these trees

There's no joy, only sorrow
only today, not tomorrow
Cant get out of my own way

One day, you say it gets better, it gets better
After all this time I realize

There's no progress I'm making
by a thread I am hanging
but you tell me keep moving on

Maybe I'm in need of reflection
I've lost my sense of direction
All I can do is keep holding on

People tell me I'm crazy
Maybe my mind is just hazy
Can't see the goodness all around

Sometimes I do too much thinking
but I got this feeling I'm sinking
the boat i'm on is heading down

Someday, you'll say it gets better, it gets better
And after all this time I realize

How many times have you caught me looking down
With this frown, with this frown?

How man times have you caught me listening to
a melancholy sound

There is a hole I've been digging
Is life here I’m living
or just some nice facade

Am I fond of the sorrow?
Maybe it’s trouble I borrow?
But I’m still here against the odds

Someday, you say it get’s better, it gets better
One Day, you say, it get’s better, it gets better
After all this time after all these lines, I fell better
