Better

I see the love that’s all around me, I can’t feel it

This fog is coming down, surrounding, I can’t deal it’s

The thoughts the cut me down and drown me

I’m still breathing

I’m bleeding on the battle ground, I’ll go down swinging

 

Move my feet and head will follow

Lead it to my heart, I’ll borrow

Strength when I am weak and I’ll stand tall when I’m afraid

Feelings come and feelings go

But what I reap is what I sow

I’m praying for potatoes but I’ll pick up the hoe

 

Show me what is right, shield me from the wrong

Help me see this bigger picture, guide me in the song

Let the ripples flow out to the broken and the bruise

Hope this journey’s far from over, work is left to do

 

To feel the love that’s all around me, I must wield it

I’ll march on through the fog, my purpose is my shield

The thoughts they have no power so I won’t believe ‘em

The wounded on the battle ground, I’ll help retrieve ‘em

 

Move my feet and head will follow

Lead it to my heart, I’ll borrow

Strength when I am weak and I’ll stand tall when I’m afraid

Feelings come and feelings go

But what I reap is what I sow

I’m praying for potatoes but I’ll pick up the hoe

 

Show me what is right, shield me from the wrong

Help me see this bigger picture, guide me in the song

Let the ripples flow out to the broken and the bruise

Hope this journey’s far from over, work is left to do

 

I won’t get bitter, I’m gonna get better

I’ll play my part and I’ll put forth the effort

It might get worse before it gets better

I’ll play my part and I’ll put forth the effort
