Sensing that this is a dark day
I remember when the sun came again
No need to fight the world myself

I have victory built into history

Cause I have seen better days

There will be better days
I have seen better days
There will be better days


This is a shadow of life lying fallow
Despairing can't find its place here


This is a shadow of life lying fallow
Despairing can't find its place here


Take a token from the past
And you see that nothing lasts

Things keep moving on
And you ask me
Where is home?

Well the clouds have fallen ill
And if yet more rain is spilled
Well I forgive them


Wash your fears in purest hope
It keeps you cleaner than can soap

Just remember that the dirt comes from within your living skin
It's made of everything you eat
Keeps you standing on your feet

There's a price to pay
But don't dismay
You'll live


Because I have seen better days
There will be better days

I have seen better days
There will be better days


This is a shadow of life lying fallow
Despairing can't find its place here


This is a shadow of life lying fallow
Despairing can't find its place here


This is a shadow of life lying fallow
Despairing can't find its place here


This is a shadow of life lying fallow
Despairing can't find its place here



Fearing silence you just might
Find yourself awake at night

Imagining the things that could go wrong before too long
Let the panic slip away
Don't hold too tightly to this day

Don't crush its life out and you're sure to find the cure

Sensing that this is a dark day

I remember when the sun came again
No need to fight the world myself
I have victory built into history



Cause I have seen better days

There will be better days
I have seen better days
There will be better days


I have seen better days
There will be better days


I have seen better days
There will be better days


This is a shadow of life lying fallow
Despairing can't find its place here

This is a shadow of life lying fallow

Despairing can't find its place here

This is a shadow of life lying fallow
Despairing can't find its place here


This is a shadow of life lying fallow
Despairing can't find its place here
