Better Days Lyrics

So distant, I hear you in the winds.
Fade away from me again.

So distant, I hear you in the wind.
Fade away from me again.

And again, isolation brings comfort.
I've always known.
But separation sets in when there's nobody left at home.
Now that we've fallen off track,
No moment passes I don't wish you back.

I'm so sick (I'm so sick)
Of this hell that I'm in.
I'm always reliving it.
And my chest starts to shake,
Free falling now's the only way I can shed the weight.

If tragedy lays her hands on me
To bless me with her company,
I'll stay awhile and drift to sleep,
Dreaming of better days.
So distant, I hear you in the wind.
Fade away.

Am I still breathing? My memory fades.
If you can still hear me, I need you to light the way.
(Light the way)
Light the way.

'Cause in a moment, I'm lost.

Wake me up.

Yet, a part of me still remains.

If tragedy lays her hands on me
To bless me with her company,
I'll stay awhile and drift to sleep,
Dreaming of better days.
So distant, I hear you in the wind.
Fade away.

I may never find my peace
(Never find peace)
'Til death opens doors for me.

We'll see you in the end.

Despite our misfortunes,
I will see you again.

When the worst is behind me,
I will fade into the grey.
