Change For the Better

Trauma in my eyes, I've become blind
wandering inside 
of my confines
push away the truth, living twisted views
I can't even cope with what I hide from you
letting go is harder than it's ever been
if I never get it, I know how it ends

that's how it is
how it is
live another life
that's how it is
how it is, I
know I wasn't right

Allow myself to dream
it's all right, all right
don't have to mean a thing
all tonight, one night

Although know in time it will all make sense
patches and pieces to the puzzle of struggle's make-shift

But it feels good
it feels good
first person in the 'if/could'
the if could

If forever it was better you would never know the darkest weather
or the side
of sleeping light from evening skies
