Yeah, I heard about the trouble last night on the radio
Seeing is believing now tell me do you like what you see?
'Cause I've been holding on to promises now yeah, for too many years
It's happening all over the world yeah to people like you and me
Things could be heaven
But this feels like hell
So hold your head high
'Cause you know I'd die
For better days
Read a story in the paper last night people living in fear
It's easy saying nothing it's easy just to watch things fall
But I was taught that there's a time in your life
When you've got to stand proud
So tell me, don't you think that it's time we put an end to it all?
Things could be heaven
But this feels like hell
So hold your head high
'Cause you know I'd die
For better days
For better days
Things should be heaven
But this feels like hell
So hold your head high
'Cause you know I'd die
For better days
Everybody dreams like me and you
Everybody do what you have to do
Where you gonna turn when it all goes wrong
Living in the same scene way too long
Everybody hopes that one of these day
That everything you want is gonna come your way
Everybody knows what they have to do
Everybody dreams like me and you
Things should be heaven
But this feels like hell
So hold your head high
'Cause you know I'd die
For better days
For better days
Things should be heaven
But this feels like hell
So hold your head high
'Cause you know I'd die
For better days
For better days
Bring better ways
