Better Day

Been swept out like dead leaves (out the door) Fell far and hit concrete (oh oh) And all the odds are stacked For any damn one in this whole world who wants to succeed You saw the last of me But I hit the pedal, I'm pushing and picking up speed It's a better day And the grass is growing higher It's a better day And the flame becomes a fire Oh… a better day Oh… a better day I've shed you like snake skin (off my back) So done with heart aching Scars decorate the soul We carry the battle wounds on our way to the next fight Now that I let you go I'm traveling faster 'cause baby I'm traveling light It's a better day And the grass is growing higher It's a better day And the flame becomes a fire Oh… a better day Oh… a better day Nothing that I touch turns to gold And things don't always end like the stories told My mind plays tricks on me But here's what I clearly can see: It's a better day And the grass is growing higher It's a better day And the flame becomes a fire Oh… a better day Oh… a better day It's a better day And the grass is growing higher It's a better day And the flame becomes a fire Oh… a better day Oh… a better day
