Better at the Start

Can we pretend that the hopes we have Won't falter in the dirt That look in your eyes Tells me more than I need to know This one's gonna hurt It's true I've got the nerve To ask you to catch me when I fall Cause you asked me to jump And I asked how high To fight the gravity of this lie When things fall apart We won't try to take it to heart When things fall apart We won't try to take it to heart Say hello to the future It won't fall apart Can we pretend that the hopes we had Were better at the start Say hello to the future Don't take it to heart Can we pretend that the hopes we had Were better at the start As we make our own way home As I pick apart these broken bones A feeling that can't be extinguished I'm burning up how do I fix this So shine a light in the middle of the road Where the future lurks I know that things can get better Be better than before Say hello to the future It won't fall apart Can we pretend that the hopes we had Were better at the start Say hello to the future Don't take it to heart Can we pretend that the hopes we had Were better at the start We were better Were better at the start We were better Were better at the start We were better Were better at the start We were better Were better at the start
