Better Now

When I look around, I can see the signs
We are better now than ever
And yet our hearts they drown, as we wait in lines
Feeling hopeful almost never
I hope things will start to make a little more sense
I can’t keep hoping things will start to make some sense
Without some change
When I read the news, oh I get the blues
When will it get better? This is so frustrating
But while there may be rules, and we can’t be fools
This is not a game of waiting
I hope things will start to make a little more sense
I can’t keep hoping things will start to make some sense
Without some change
Do we need to take steps forward?
Or should we just stand tall and still?
Should we all take a few steps back and just listen?
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I hope things will start to make a little more sense
I can’t keep hoping things will start to make some sense
Without some change
I hope things will start to make a little more sense
(We are better now than ever)
I can’t keep hoping things will start to make some sense
(And yet our hearts they drown, as we wait in lines
Feeling hopeful almost never)
Without some change
