[Verse 1] Duct tape on my backpack Rent due Past due Same Ceiling leak in my bedroom Drips right on my name Late notice on the doorframe Landlord spelled it wrong Guess I’m hard to cancel I’m still hanging on [Chorus] I know it’s messed up now But it won’t stay like this We’re bleeding through these days For a hit For a fix of a kiss Screaming in the static Till our throats all hiss I swear I swear It gets better than this [Verse 2] Bus stop in the downpour Shoes soaked through my socks Hand-me-down ambitions Stuffed in busted box All my friends are tinder Burn quick Fade to gray I’m the stubborn ember That refuses to blow away [Chorus] I know it’s messed up now But it won’t stay like this We’re bleeding through these days For a hit For a fix of a kiss Screaming in the static Till our throats all hiss I swear I swear It gets better than this [Bridge] Yeah I’ve counted every crack On this dead-end street But there’s a line out there Where the sky and pavement meet I’ll walk till my feet tear Till the blisters split ’Cause something’s gonna change And I’m not done with it (not yet) [Chorus] I know it’s messed up now But it won’t stay like this We’re bleeding through these days For a hit For a fix of a kiss Screaming in the static Till our throats all hiss I swear I swear It gets better than this Yeah I swear I swear It gets better than this
