Better Days

Lyrics: Anthony Cottrill Music: Anthony Cottrill [intro] mmm mmm better days, better days
[Verse 1] I be havin lucid dreams And then I fade away Eyes open, same old fear Still I'm here to stay
Wonder if it's a sign Like you better stay away Devil on my back tonight I can hear him say
I pray with my hands up On the edge of the bed Heavy in my chest now Like a word unsaid
[Pre-Chorus] If the dark want me It can take the night I been bent too long Now I'm reaching for the light
Give me one more breath Give me one more try I don't want the smoke I just want to survive
[Chorus] Give us some better days Give us some better days All we want is better days All we want is better days
Better days, better days Wash this weight away Better days, better days Make the hurt go away
[Verse 2] Mama said keep moving Even when you fall Even when your shadow Looks too big on the wall
I done lost some pieces Still I keep my name Every scar I carry Means I made it through the flame
So if you see me slipping Don't let go too fast I'm still fighting for the future I can feel it in the glass
[Pre-Chorus] If the dark want me It can take the night I been bent too long Now I'm reaching for the light
Give me one more breath Give me one more try I don't want the smoke I just want to survive
[Chorus] Give us some better days Give us some better days All we want is better days All we want is better days
Better days, better days Wash this weight away Better days, better days Make the hurt go away
[Bridge] I seen the bottom I know its shape I held my own heart When it was hard to keep
If I keep walking Till the pain lets go Maybe tomorrow Gonna finally show
[Final Chorus] Give us some better days Give us some better days All we want is better days All we want is better days
Better days, better days Wash this weight away Better days, better days All we want is better days
