Better Now

Mother, I swear I'm better now

Last year's sickness is finally dying down

I've been getting out of bed and taking my meds

I even go outside

If that's not enough to make me alright, then why even try?

Well pastor, I can assure you I am fixed

And crying in public doesn't mean that I'm sick

I haven't been eating or sleeping, but that's irrelevant

'Cause I can cover the thorn in my side wearing my Sunday best

Half of me is in denial

The other won't stop its feeling

So when I tell you that I'm all better now

I don't know who's speaking

Father, I'm better now I promise

I've managed to tie myself to an overpriced office

No, I don't need to talk, I don't want to write

There's nothing left to say

I turned out like you would expect me to as a descendant of quiet shame

Half of me is in denial

The other won't stop is feeling

So when I tell you that I'm all better now

I don't know who's speaking

I'm better now, I promise

I'm better now, I promise

I'm better now, I promise

There's no use in being honest
