I don't want to out to see my friends tonight
Drinking just to feel alright
And I don't want to pick up the phone and have to lie
Tell my mom I'm doing fine
Oooh
They will never understand why I am the way I am
'Cause I, I don't even know what's going on inside
What the hell is peace of mind?
They say it gets better
Damn it's taking forever, I know
These days should be treasured
But I don't want to remember at all
I feel like I've done my time
Still don't see the end in sight
But they say it gets better
I can't think of the last time that I went to sleep without anxiety
And I kind of miss the days I could go out to eat
Without crying over calories
Oooh
I just want to understand why I am the way I am
Oooh, oh
Acting like an optimist telling myself I'm convinced
When they say it gets better
Damn it's taking forever, I know
These days should be treasured
But I don't want to remember at all
I feel like I've done my time
I still don't see the end in sight
But they say it gets better
Oooh, oh
Everything I feel right now get's figured out
Oooh, oh
Or do I learn to live with it?
Is that what works for everyone else?
When they say it gets better
Damn it's taking forever, I know
These days should be treasured
But I don't want to remember at all
I'm showing all the warning signs
And I don't want to lose my mind
Before it gets better
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
They say it gets better
