The things we've done
Are the things we become
How nice would it be for a minute
Forget about the past
The failures that don't last
How nice would it be to admit it
The things that could've been
Were there for you to win
But you couldn't play the game
Now who is there to blame?
When they say things are getting better
Don't you know when they say?
And things change, sometimes not for better
It never quite stays the same
You'll see in time
That things start to rhyme
Time won't last for a minute
You'll see things change
And start to rearrange
Life won't ever admit it
The pain you'll never show
Is the pain that only grows
But I see it in your face
You try but can't embrace
And they say things are getting better
Don't you know when they say?
It gets worse before it gets better
But what if it stays the same?
You want peace of mind
But all you ever seem to find
Is an endless maze of compromise
With no end in sight
I guess you must be alive
And they say things are getting better
Don't you know when they say?
That things change, sometimes not for better
It never does stay the same
It never will stay the same
