The Better Life Lyrics – Giant Rooks

Do you wanna live forever?
'Cause I can show you how
A place closer to heaven
Let me take you out of town

To escape the madness
That's fucking with your mind
And boy, your crushing sadness
Just leave it all behind

Welcome to the better life
We'll be staying by your side
And if you wanna pay the prize
We activate infinite time

Just go ahead and suck it in
Swallow it like vitamins
We'll be staying by your side
Welcome to the better life

You say you wanna change
But you all just stay the same
Now your skin is growing old
And your head is going bald

"Have I wasted the best of me
On some bullshit American dream?"
Let's dive into the TV screen
And swim into the neon lights

Welcome to the better life
The one you always wanted
Even if this house is haunted
Welcome to the better life

My blood has turned a different red
No fears are left inside my head, no
So I just let the windows down
Breathing in, as I'm breathing out

The sun reflects upon the road
A million miles away from home
Been tryna make myself believe
That I am young and I am free

But I just gotta stay the best
At putting weights upon my chest
I've made my life a misery
Of something only I can see

When I look in the mirror now
Oh, I just wanna scream it out
I'm everything you wanna be
So why you're not in love with me?

So why you're not in love with me?
If only I could make you see
I'm everything you wanna be
So why you're not in love with me?
