Woke up in a sky that’s broken blue
Promises whispered, but none are true
Counting the cracks on the ceiling above
Laughing at pain, pretending it’s love
Every step forward, a twist in the plot
Every silver lining, a shadow you forgot
It gets better, they said, it’s worse than ever
Smiles like lightning, fading whenever
Hearts keep bleeding, but we dance together
It gets better, it’s worse than ever
Glass half empty, or maybe it’s full
Toxic confetti in a carnival cruel
You thought you were strong, but the floor gives way
The night sings secrets you can’t betray
Every cheer hides a sigh beneath
Every heartbeat is a thief
It gets better, they said, it’s worse than ever
Smiles like lightning, fading whenever
Hearts keep bleeding, but we dance together
It gets better, it’s worse than ever
If hope is a joke, I’ll play along
Raise my hands, hum the broken song
Maybe the pain is the only friend
That never pretends, that never bends
It gets better, they lied, it’s worse than ever
Flashes of light we’ll chase forever
Lost in the echoes of now and never
It gets better, it’s worse than ever
