[Verse 1]
The ballast has come down, it's left me aimless and afraid
That's not how I was made, my head inside my knees
If I can't think, than I can't breathe
I just want to leave this place at last

[Pre-Chorus]
When you live, you gotta live large
Let the world know who's in charge
There will never be a better time than now

[Chorus]
Never better than now, never better than now
There will never be a better time than now

[Verse 2]
Finally changed my number, keep the calls from coming in
I'm just not interested, the medicine's not working
But I'm feeling the effects
From all the side effects warned on the box

[Pre-Chorus]
When you live, you gotta live large
Let the world know who's in charge
There will never be a better time than now
[Chorus]
Never better than now, never better than now
There will never be a better time than now

[Bridge]
I've left you wondering
Was there poison in the sting that pierced my heart
'Cause I feel momentarily paralyzed
But I get back on the horse and correct my current course
'Cause when I have run aground, yes I have let you down
'Cause when I have run aground, yes I have let you down

[Pre-Chorus 2]
When you talk, you gotta talk fast
Your next breath may be your last
The road's been winding down now for a while

[Chorus]
Never better than now, never better than now
There will never be a better time than now
Never better than now, never better than now
There will never be a better time than now
