Take that weight off your shoulders
It's kinda hard when it keeps getting colder inside
There's no heart just a place where the souls been all torn apart
No chance for repentence the world is a prison and life is a sentence
I can't redefine the surroundings that hound me and keep me denied
This pain's just a part of me and it's hard to breathe
I'm always here on the outside
It all seems so far away there's gotta be a better life
In this world made of plastic
I can bend and stretch like elastic
No sign of the sun it's just a barrel a handle gun
Unwhole in this madness no redemption I'm drowning in sadness
Alone crucified by the pain and the sorrow that keeps me alive
I don't want to feel this, I can't hope to heal this,
I can't cope with everything inside

Friday night and the moon is high
I'm wide-awake just watchin' you sleep
And I promise you you're gonna have
More than just the things that you need
We ain't got much now, We're just startin' out
But I know somehow paradise is comin'

[Chorus:]
Someday baby, You and I are gonna be the ones
Good luck's gonna shine
Someday baby you and I are gonna be the ones
So hold on
We're headed for a better life

Oh now there's a place for you and me
Where we can dream as big as the sky
I know it's hard to see it now
But baby someday we're gonna fly
This road we're on, you know it might be long
But my faith is strong
It's all that really matters

[REPEAT CHORUS]

So hold on, hold on
C'mon baby, hold on

Yeah, we're gonna have it all
And ooh

[REPEAT CHORUS TWICE]

Oh, a better life
Hey we're gonna leave this all behind us baby, wait and see
We're headed for a better life, you and me
We're gonna break the chains that bind and, finally we'll be free
We're gonna be the ones that have it all, you and me
Just hold on tight now baby

I’m about to be on the floor again
surely you’re gonna find me here
I’m about to sleep until the end of time
drug I take gonna wake my fear right now

I’m passing the way out to the better life
I’m passing the way out to the better

I’m about to see just how far I can fly
surely your gonna break my fall
I’m about to run as fast as I can
head long into that wall this time

I’m passing the way out to the better life
I’m passing the way out to the better

On to the better life
On to the better

I’m about to be on the floor again
surely you’re gonna find me here
I’m about to sleep until the end of time
drug I take gonna wake my fear right now

I’m passing the way out to the better life
I’m passing the way out to the better
I’m passing the way out to the better life
I’m passing the way out to the better

I’m about to be on the floor again,
Surely you’re gonna find me here
I’m about to sleep until the end of time,
Drug I take gonna wake
My fear right now

Better life

I've been long in need of you in my life,
I've been looking through the open doors,
And heaven knows how we could turn the other way,

Can you tell me why you let go?,
Can you tell me why you let go?,
When you know it's true,

There's a better life,
There's a better life,
And I know it's true,
There's a better life,
There's a better life,
And it makes me high,

I've been chasing things at everybody likes,
I've been hoping things will work out fine,
And I feel I'll never know,
How it feels to be alone,

Can you tell me why you let go?
Can you tell me why you let go?

There's a better life,
There's a better life,
And I know it's true,
There's a better life,
There's a better life,
And it makes me high,
And it makes me high,

Whoa - ah - oh's

Can you tell me why you let go?,
Can you tell me why you let go?,

Can you tell me why you let go?,
Ooh's

There's a better life,
There's a better life,
And it wait for you,
There's a better life,
There's a better life,
Ooh's

Waiting for the morning light to sneak up with the sunrise,
last night was so long ago,
where did the hours ago?
I saw the first daylight shining in your eyes,
you were mine and the world was ours.
Dreams of a better life can come true,
It's all there in you.
Just like a break in the clouds when the sun come shining through,
momentary glimpse of the divine sometimes
when I look at you and everything just cancels out
and for that moment there's no doubt
Dreams of a better life can come true,
it's all there in you.
Sometimes a new day can bring a new beginning
you took me to a place no time can erase.
Yesterday I was a loser,
today I'm winning today you're mine and the world is ours.
Dreams of a better life can come true
I'ts all there in you

I’m about to be on the floor
Again, surely you’re gonna
Find me here
I’m about to sleep
until the end of time
drug I take gonna wake
My fear right now

I’m passing away on to the
Better life
I’m passing away
on to the better

I’m about to see just how far I
can fly, surely you're gonna
break my fall
I’m about
to run as fast as I can
Head long into that wall
This time

I’m passing away
on to the better life
I’m passing away on
To the better

On to the
better life
On to the better

I’m about to be
on the floor again
surely you’re gonna
Find me here
I’m about to sleep
until the End of time
drug I take gonna wake my
fear right now

I’m passing away
on to the
Better life
I’m passing away on
To the better
I’m passing away on to the
Better life

I’m passing away on
To the better
