Tinashe, Bleachers - I Wanna Get Better (Cover) lyrics

Hey, I hear the voice of a
Preacher from the back room
Calling my name and I follow just to find you
I trace the faith to
A broken down television
And put on the weather
And I've trained myself to give
Up on the past cause
I frozen time between hearses and caskets
Lost control when I panicked at the acid test
I wanna get better

While my friends were getting high and
Chasing guys down parkway lines
I was losing my mind cause the love
The love, the love, the love, the love
That I gave wasted on a nice face
In a blaze of fear I put a helmet on a helmet
Counting seconds through the night
And got carried away

So now I'm standing on the overpass
"Hey, I wanna get better!"

I didn’t know I was lonely
'Til I saw your face
I didn't know I was broken
'Til I wanted to change
Get get get get, I wanna get get get get get
I wanna get

I go up to my room and
There's girls on the ceiling
Cut out their pictures and
I chase that feeling
Of an eighteen year old who
Didn't know what loss was now I'm a stranger
And I miss the days of a life still permanent
Mourn the years before I got carried away

So now I'm staring on the overpass
"Hey, I wanna get better!"

I didn’t know I was lonely
'Til I saw your face
I didn't know I was broken
'Til I wanted to change
Get get get get, I wanna get get get get get
I wanna get

Cause I'm sleeping in the back of a taxi
I'm screaming out my bedroom window
Even if it's gonna kill me

Woke up this morning early before my family
From this dream where she was
Trying to show me
How a life can move from the darkness
She said to get better
So I put a bullet where
I shoulda put a helmet
And I crash my car cause
I wanna get carried away

So now I'm standing on the overpass
"Hey, I wanna get better!"

I didn’t know I was lonely
'Til I saw your face
I didn't know I was broken
'Til I wanted to change
Get get get get, I wanna get get get get get
I wanna get
