Better Life

When I drive to fast and hit a wall
Or drink myself to the hospital
I'm the only one to blame
(Blame, blame, blame)
And as sirens haunt my city streets
And though that sound is after me
Calmly I await the change
(Change, change, change)
So don't wait
For the world to get better
You're gonna waste
The time you have
Ah, ah, and you won't get it back
When you fall
When you break
When you wish you didn't feel
Keep your head
Don't forget
It's the pain that makes us real
I know most of the time
It's hard to keep in mind
From lessons learned
Comes better life, better life
When I play too hard
And break my bones
Depress myself to the lowest lows
I'm the only one to blame
(Blame, blame, blame)
'Cause the choice is mine
And mine alone
And I choose to learn as I go
Clarity will come from pain
(Pain, pain, pain)
So don't wait
For the world to get better
You're gonna waste
The time you have
Ah, ah, and you won't get it back
When you fall
When you break
When you wish you didn't feel
Keep your head
Don't forget
It's the pain that makes us real
I know most of the time
It's hard to keep in mind
From lessons learned
Comes better life, better life
So don't wait
(Oh)
For the world to get better
So don't wait
(Oh)
For the world to get better
My understanding of
The world feels broken
And it's demanding
My immediate attention
You're looking up
Believing you will leave
Your problems below
Forget what you believe
Use what you know
(Use what you know)
When you fall
When you break
When you wish you didn't feel
Keep your head
Don't forget
It's the pain that makes us real
I know most of the time
(Most of the time)
It's hard to keep in mind
(Keep in mind)
From lessons learned
(Lessons learned)
Comes better life, better life

The End Of Progression

So they're saying
That the end is coming
I'm saying that
They don't know nothing
It's been right here
(It's been right here)
The whole time
(The whole time)
Disguised as a straight line
(Ah, ah)
If we already knew who to be
(Ah, ah)
Time is something
That we wouldn't need
One by one
You will lose yourself
As you keep on following
Following footsteps
That lead the wrong direction
One by one
You are fading out
As you're slowly settling
Settling for the same
You play it safe
You end progression
Retreating to the same old places
Breeding all the same old faces
Youth is wasted on the young
Life is wasted on the living ones
(Ah, ah)
If we already knew who to be
(Ah, ah)
Time is something
That we wouldn't need
One by one
You will lose yourself
As you keep on following
Following footsteps
That lead the wrong direction
One by one
You are fading out
As you're slowly settling
Settling for the same
You play it safe
You end progression
I've been cheated
I've been broken
And it made me a better man
Something you will never say
And you will end
Before beginning
The same as you ever were
Quietly you'll slip away
One by one
You will lose yourself
As you keep on following
Following footsteps
That lead the wrong direction
One by one
You are fading out
As you're slowly settling
Settling for the same
You play it safe
You end progression
You play it safe
You end progression
