Better Here

Let the calendar pages fall to the ground
Like late autumn leaves so they may never be found
And close the gate on another year
The carving on the mantel reads it's safe here

And it's been a long time, I spent a long time running
But I'm finally in the clear
I was gonna be everything I wanted
But things are better here

Back to the start, another hole in my heart
But the road ahead I couldn't see more clearly
Making a quick scan, searching for quicksand
An entire city drowned out by a streetlight

I hoped for the end too many times
But many times it isn't hard to fight
I won't go back, it's for my health
I don't have to be anyone else

And it's been a long time, I spent a long time running
But I'm finally in the clear
I was gonna be everything I wanted
But things are better here

And it's been a long time, I spent a long time running
But I'm finally in the clear
I was gonna be everything I wanted
But things are better here

Why is it that in the worst of times
I think too much?
Another day that I get stuck
And I go numb

Was a wreck, I'm improving
Introspect, and keep moving
I'll keep these picture frames under my future's wing
And life doesn't owe me a thing

And it's been a long time, I spent a long time running
But I'm finally in the clear
I was gonna be everything I wanted
But things are better here

And it's been a long time, I spent a long time running
But I'm finally in the clear
I was gonna be everything I wanted
But things are better here

And it's been a long time, I spent a long time running
But I'm finally in the clear
I was gonna be everything I wanted
But things are better here

And it's been a long time, I spent a long time running
But I'm finally in the clear
I was gonna be everything I wanted
But things are better here
