I Wanna Get Better

Wish that I could

Tell you how you'll feel

That life you dream of

Never appears

Sophomore summer

Hang out with your friends

Won't be like that again

And I've tried

To stare at a bright light

Keep to a bedtime

Wish I could tell you we're alright

Bodega's still here on Broadway

Same place that we went in the 9th grade

What a simpler time

Writing this postcard to you

Sorry for what you'll go through

Promise I did try

Cause I'm not good, but I wanna get better

400 square foot apartment

Still going 10 years strong

Never changed the orange carpet

Didn't think I'd last this long

Spend my days

Dragging laundry bags

From the bed to floor and back

And I've tried

To be what you wanted

Live up to the promise

Knowing I've let you down's the hardest

Bodega's still here on Broadway

Same place that we went in the 9th grade

What a simpler time

Writing this postcard to you

Sorry for what you'll go through

Promise I did try

Cause I'm not good, but I wanna get better

You were so good, why am I not better

You were so good

You were so good

You were so good

Why am I not better

You were so good

Why am I not better

You were so good

Why am I not better

You were so good

Why am I not better

You were so good

Why am I not better

You were so good
