[00:11.29]Hey I hear the voice of the preacher from the back room
[00:14.31]Calling my name and I follow just to find you
[00:16.86]I trace the faith to a broken down television and put on the weather
[00:21.56]And I've trained myself to give up on the past
[00:23.86]Cause I froze in time between hearses and caskets
[00:26.96]Lost control when I panicked at the acid test
[00:29.67]I wanna get better
[00:31.32]While my friends were getting high
[00:33.07]And chasing girls down parkway lines
[00:35.23]I was losing my mind
[00:36.41]Because the love,the love,the love,the love,the love
[00:39.12]that I gave wasted on a nice face
[00:42.12]In a blaze of fear,I put a helmet on a helmet
[00:44.84]Counting seconds through a night and got carried away
[00:47.71]So now I'm standing on the overpass
[00:49.48]Screaming at the cars, hey!
[00:50.99]I wanna get better!
[00:52.15]I didn't know I was lonely til I saw your face
[00:57.42]I wanna get better
[00:59.57]Better, better, better
[01:01.27]I wanna get better
[01:02.18]I didn't know I was broken til I wanted to change
[01:07.55]I wanna get better
[01:09.68]Better, better, better
[01:11.33]I wanna get better
[01:12.34]I go up to my room and there's girls on the ceiling
[01:14.77]Cut out their pictures and I chase that feeling
[01:17.04]Of an eighteen year old who didn't know what loss was
[01:20.29]Now I'm a stranger
[01:22.00]And I miss the days of a life still permanent
[01:25.09]Mourn the years before I got carried away
[01:28.24]So now I'm staring at the interstate
[01:29.88]Screaming at myself, hey!
[01:31.48]I wanna get better
[01:32.54]I didn't know I was lonely til I saw your face
[01:37.86]I wanna get better
[01:40.06]Better, better, better
[01:41.61]I wanna get better
[01:42.63]I didn't know I was broken til I wanted to change
[01:47.97]I wanna get better
[01:50.06]Better, better, better
[01:51.73]I wanna get better
[01:53.18]Cause I'm sleeping in the back of a taxi
[01:56.44]I'm screaming from my bedroom window
[01:58.78]Even if it's gonna kill me
[02:04.16]
[02:33.32]Woke up this morning early before my family
[02:35.99]From this dream where she was trying to show me
[02:38.61]How a life can move from the darkness
[02:41.12]She said to get better
[02:42.76]So I put a bullet where I should have put a helmet
[02:45.79]And I crash my car Cause I wanna get carried away
[02:49.04]That's why I'm standing on the overpass
[02:50.71]Screaming at myself, hey!
[02:52.36]I wanna get better!
[02:53.63]I didn't know I was lonely til I saw your face
[02:58.56]I wanna get better
[03:00.78]Better, better, better
[03:02.49]I wanna get better
[03:03.51]I didn't know I was broken til I wanted to change
[03:08.67]I wanna get better
[03:10.92]Better, better, better
[03:12.63]I wanna get better
[03:15.74]
