I know it's where we had to end,
The torch we doused, we lit again,
The flame of our reflection kept us
Holding on from far away,
The dreams we had, the love we made,
The times we drank ourselves asleep to wake up to what we believe,
In what we have and what we need,
We'll wonder how good it can get,
(Much better than this)
I'm in the good life now,
I see myself,
Smiling bigger and wider than you ever knew how,
I'm in the good life now,
All by myself,
Getting better with every regret I allow,
I guess it's where the time begins,
When you get drunk and call again,
And I can't sit here listening to how bad you want to pave the way,
To drink yourself like Hemingway,
So you can make a memory from the things you never turned into,
In every girl that I'll go through,
They'll wonder how good it can get,
(Much better than this)
I'm in the good life now,
I see myself,
Smiling bigger and wider than you ever knew how,
I'm in the good life now,
All by myself,
Getting better with every regret I allow,
I hear from your friends your still alive,
I guess I wasted those wishes on nothing,
I'm in the good life now,
I see myself,
Smiling bigger and wider than you ever knew how,
I'm in the good life now,
All by myself,
Getting better with every regret I allow,
I'm in the good life now,
I see myself,
Smiling bigger and wider than you ever knew how,
I'm in the good life now,
All by myself,
Getting better with every regret I allow,
