Better Days
By Mara Levi
Oh you're only on my mind
Sometimes
And you're only in my dreams
it seems
Well, it seems that the answer is the only thing we know
And we know that the dreamer is the only thing we own
I've been waiting for so long
Maybe waiting I'm alone
alone
Well, alone, isolationism answers with resolve
and resolved, all the dreamers will be dancing on our own
our own and we know
Chorus:
that all we are is our own
And all we're armed with are superhuman chain-link fences
and all we are is alone
All we can do is just hold on for a while
We can hold each other's hands as we flash convincing smiles and we
hold on for better days ahead
I remain what I've become
Undone
And I remain when I'm undone,
someone
Yeah, we are what the papers say, but the papers they don't know
they don't know what we're hiding,
what we're keeping for our own, our own
Chorus (undernourished expectations)
Oh there are better days ahead
That's what my sweet Aunt Betsy said
You hold your breath for me and I will play you revelle, oh
There are better days ahead
Yeah there are better days ahead
That's what my little sister said
You put your hand in mine and I will find you in my time
There are better days ahead
Oh, better days
There are better days ahead, yeah
You own your dreams, and your hat has run away with your head.
