Something Better

Me and everyone I know
Has broken glass on the floors
Of their childhood homes
I walk across with bleeding toes

I breathe sadness like oxygen
I let it out just to let it back in
This static in my genetics
Could burn my life down if I let it

Show me something better and I'll follow
Something that can't hurt me tomorrow
Show me something better and I'll listen
Eyes wide, beggin' for a reason

Show me something better and I'll follow
Something that can't hurt me tomorrow
Show me something better and I'll listen
Eyes wide, beggin' for a reason

At night, I dream of everything I lost
Or everything I gained, guess it's all how you add it up
I bleed out anger that I built up from my youth
I always knew the world was awful, I'm just scared I might be too

And I can't keep going on like this
I'll ruin everything in a single breath
A burning shower, a long walk home
A blanket statement of how people grow

Show me something better and I'll follow
Something that can't hurt me tomorrow
Show me something better and I'll listen
Eyes wide, beggin' for a reason

Show me something better and I'll follow
Something that can't hurt me tomorrow
Show me something better and I'll listen
Eyes wide, beggin' for a reason

Even after all this time
I find myself feeling like
A child with my hand over my mouth
I hate the words I can't get out

Show me something better and I'll follow
Something that can't hurt me tomorrow
Show me something better and I'll listen
Eyes wide, beggin' for a reason

Show me something better and I'll follow
Something that can't hurt me tomorrow
Show me something better and I'll listen
Eyes wide, beggin' for a reason
