It Gets Better

When did I start to feel this way? I wish I had cherished my time before I began aging Feels like I'm living by mistake, I don't recall choosing this fate So many nights I lie awake, confronting my endless collection of dissatisfactions How many hours will it take before they can wither away? "You're not alone!" But in the cold they never know where I go And so I guess I'll survive, Cause I know the hardest part was never losing hope, But rather letting go And now I search far and wide, To find those who truly know if there is any hope, Far from a swinging rope "Wait right here." That's what they told me. "It gets better." It won't heal And that's the irony They're always trying to stitch me up Been wrong all along It's not real I know it helps you sleep But your karma won't fill my cup Nor yours when I'm gone
