I am living in a house Where the rain pours in And the walls are creeping closer I'm short of money and my car gave up Yes, I've seen better moments Sounds like a cliché sounds like a script Where the hero starts out hopeless But I'm selling my soul just to pay the rent So I don't ever end up homeless I'm sick of my job cause it makes me a hypocrite Knowing that I'm going nowhere I'm stuck in a state of sheer indifference Wishing for it to be over Here I am just hanging on So far away from where I belong But I won't bow down To what went wrong I'll make things turn out right And I may fail a thousand times But one day I'll do Better than this, better than this One day I'll do better than this When the time has come One day I'll do, one day I'll do Better than this, better than this One day I'll do better than this When the time has come One day I'll do, one day I'll do Better than this I struggle with the bad habits dragging me down That dominate my attention Still a victim of my dark desires And a waste of my potential I'm sick of myself standing in my own way Falling in and out of addiction My urge is a current too hard to fight Like I was rowing this boat through quicksand Here I am Just rowing on So far away from where I belong But I won't bow down To what went wrong I'll make things turn out right And I may fail a thousand times But one day I'll do Better than this, better than this One day I'll do better than this When the time has come One day I'll do, one day I'll do Better than this, better than this One day I'll do better than this When the time has come One day I'll do, one day I'll do Better than this I hope that all my patience will be worth it I pray it's gonna pay, don't I deserve it? I haven't found the gold beneath the dirt, yet But I am gonna keep on tryin' till the day that I do Better than this, better than this One day I'll do better than this When the time has come One day I'll do, one day I'll do Better than this, better than this One day I'll do better than this When the time has come One day I'll do, one day I'll do Better than this
