Broadside
A Better Way
[Verse 1]
There is a darkness
That sits in the back of your mind
We spent our youth creating futures
Where we both would have our time
We were 15, so naive
And blinded by possibilities
We used to feel so alive
What dulled your shine?

[Chorus]
But there has got to be a better way
Then drowning in this hateful place
The look inside your mother’s eyes
When she found you blacked out on the couch
Waiting to die

[Verse 2]
And at the bottom of every bottle
There is a silence
Where you question
Your existence
Denying the fact that maybe there is
More to life than this

[Chorus]
But there has got to be a better way
Then drowning in this hateful place
The look inside your mother’s eyes
When she found you blacked out on the couch
Waiting to die
