They keep saying it’ll get better
But What if it never gets better?
What happens when the pain and the sadness never goes away
When can I say enough is enough
Each minute goes by as I count the seconds waiting on better to come
It never does
They say before I know it I’ll be happy and better off
They keep saying better
“It’ll get better”
“You’ll be better”
I’m at my lowest and I don’t think better is coming
And I’m tired of waiting for better to show its judge-mental face
Promising nothing but lies spewing false hopes from its twisted mouth
What if better for me is not being here
Maybe better is for them when I’m gone
Gone is better
It’s Better to be gone and forgotten
