Better Things

Down in the dirt, you kicked me You broke me down, but no, no not again I'm learning more, I'm standing on my own Feelin' trapped, where can I run again Gotta go somewhere that I can stand Couldn't care less about anything Wait here and I'll show you what I can bring I'm packin' up Making my way out Don't slow me down You never really saw how life could throw me around On my own's Never been so sweet I never thought that life could be like this I'm getting out and I'm onto better things Trying hard to please everybody here It's my car and I can't even steer But I don't care to hear them anymore Do what I love, and just learn to ignore Take me back, take me back home again Oh of course you wouldn't understand All the things I could blame feelings on It doesn't matter, cause soon enough I'll be gone I'm packin' up Making my way out Don't slow me down You never really saw how life could throw me around On my own's Never been so sweet I never thought that life could be like this I'm getting out and I'm onto better things Oh Count the stars in the sky See how many chances we can take We can't Keep ourselves inside There're too many people's lives we have to make
