i hope that things get better

You watched me grow up
Be a loser
Become a not so straight shooter
Take up swimming
Then I quit
But I had you to do it with
You're not around to share the joke
Or fix the TV now it's broken

In Florida we swam with dolphins
But we always lost the snorkels
Burned our feet into the sand
And just forgot about our morals
I wish you were immortal

So this is to
When you fucked up
And I fucked up
When we fucked up together
When you got drunk
And I got drunk
When we got drunk however
It's in the past
It didn't last
Somehow I thought we had forever

I hope that things get better
I hope that things get better
I hope that things get better
I hope that things get better

Remember when
We hit New York
Ate the Big Apple with a fork
You gave us everything to live for
Then with wings you went and soared, oh
I wish, I wish, I wish we could've talked more

So this is to
When you fucked up
And I fucked up
When we fucked up together
When you got drunk
And I got drunk
When we got drunk however
It's in the past
It didn't last
Somehow I thought we had forever

I hope that things get better
I hope that things get better
I hope that things get better
I hope that things get better

I hope that things get better
And that you guide me through the years
And conquer all my greatest fears
If I didn't know much better
I'd convince myself that you're still here
To teach me all those lessons
To reassure me when I'm just guessing
To see all my success
Not got long left
But just a second with you
In any danger I need you
And now I'm left to just make do
And now I'm praying for a dreamland
Somewhere we can escape to
I love how you lit up the room
And how I got that skill from you
But trust me when I say this
You were by far the worst thing to lose

I hope that things get better
I hope that things get better
I hope that things get better
I hope that things get better
