Things are getting better Look at all the weight I’ve lost The pounds are falling off of me But I’m asking, at what cost? I haven’t left my bed in days I can’t be ****** to cook I can’t be ****** to do my work Or read a poxy book Things are getting better I’m relaxing more and more I feel less and less anxiety Knocking on my door But I’ve got deadlines I need to beat I’m falling well behind The backlog of things I need to do Is playing on my mind Things are getting better The pills are staying down They keep me on an even keel Upon a safer ground I don’t get too emotional Over petty **** Or feel too much elation Once I’ve had my little hit Things are getting better I went to have a blood test They wanna see if there’s a medical reason Why I’m feeling so depressed But I wonder if my blood can show What’s going through my head Or can give a rational explanation For why I can’t get out of bed? Things are getting better I’m less and less inclined To listen to the ******** That passes through my mind And I wonder, if things keep on changing Where are they gonna go? ‘Cause if this is getting better Then I really don’t wanna know.

Things Are Getting Better
Things are getting better Look at all the weight I’ve lost The pounds are falling off of me But I’m asking, at what cost? I haven’t left my bed in days I can’t be ****** to cook I can’t be ****** to do my work Or read a poxy book Things are getting better I’m relaxing more and more I feel less and less anxiety Knocking on my door But I’ve got deadlines I need to beat I’m falling well behind The backlog of things I need to do Is playing on my mind Things are getting better The pills are staying down They keep me on an even keel Upon a safer ground I don’t get too emotional Over petty **** Or feel too much elation Once I’ve had my little hit Things are getting better I went to have a blood test They wanna see if there’s a medical reason Why I’m feeling so depressed But I wonder if my blood can show What’s going through my head Or can give a rational explanation For why I can’t get out of bed? Things are getting better I’m less and less inclined To listen to the ******** That passes through my mind And I wonder, if things keep on changing Where are they gonna go? ‘Cause if this is getting better Then I really don’t wanna know.
