0:10Hey I hear the voice
0:11Of the preacher from the back room
0:13Calling my name and
0:13I follow just to find you
0:15I trace the faith
0:16To a broken down television
0:18And put on the weather
0:20And I've trained myself
0:21To give up on the past
0:22Cause I froze in time
0:23Between hearses and caskets
0:25Lost control when I
0:26Panicked at the acid test
0:28I wanna get better
0:30While my friends were getting high
0:31And chasing girls down parkway lines
0:33I was losing my mind
0:35Because the love
0:35The love the love
0:36The love the love
0:37That I gave
0:39Wasted on a nice face
0:40In a blaze of fear
0:42I put a helmet on a helmet
0:43Counting seconds through a night
0:44And got carried away
0:46So now I'm standing on the overpass
0:48Screaming at the cars hey
0:49I wanna get better
0:51I didn't know I was lonely
0:53Til I saw your face
0:56I wanna get better
0:58Better better better
1:00I wanna get better
1:01I didn't know I was broken
1:04Til I wanted to change
1:06I wanna get better
1:08Better better better
1:10I wanna get better
1:10I go up to my room
1:12And there's girls on the ceiling
1:13Cut out their pictures
1:14And I chase that feeling
1:15Of an eighteen year old
1:17Who didn't know
1:17What loss was
1:19Now I'm a stranger
1:20And I miss the days
1:21Of a life still permanent
1:23Mourn the years
1:24Before I got carried away
1:26So now I'm staring at the interstate
1:28Screaming at myself hey
1:30I wanna get better
1:31I didn't know I was lonely
1:34Til I saw your face
1:36I wanna get better
1:38Better better better
1:40I wanna get better
1:41I didn't know I was broken
1:44Til I wanted to change
1:46I wanna get better
1:48Better better better
1:50I wanna get better
1:52Cause I'm sleeping in the back of a taxi
1:54I'm screaming from my bedroom window
1:57Even if it's gonna kill me
2:32Woke up this morning
2:32Early before my family
2:34From this dream
2:35Where she was trying to show me
2:37How a life
2:37Can move from the darkness
2:39She said to get better
2:41So I put a bullet
2:42Where I should have put a helmet
2:44And I crash my car
2:45Cause I wanna get carried away
2:47That's why I'm standing on the overpass
2:49Screaming at myself hey
2:51I wanna get better
2:52I didn't know I was lonely
2:55Til I saw your face
2:57I wanna get better
2:59Better better better
3:01I wanna get better
3:02I didn't know I was broken
3:05Til I wanted to change
3:07I wanna get better
3:09Better better better
3:11I wanna get better
