People always say it makes sense when you're bigger
Gotta hold your breath and hold your liquor
'Cause it's ice cold
Living with my eyes closed
Doing laundry, doing taxes
Woulda thought we'd have enough practice for a perfect life
I'm just killing time

Waiting for a change to come along (God)
Not another quarter-life crisis song

Don't try to tell me it gets better
I know it doesn't
Can't stand to sit through another lecture
Once I was the kid in the front with the big wide eyes
Be the first one to say it's alright
Don't try to tell me it gets better
Yeah, right

People always say it happens for a reason
Gonna find your way and find your meaning
But I'm kinda sick
Justifying it

Waiting for a change to come along (God)
Not another quarter-life crisis song

Don't try to tell me it gets better
I know it doesn't
Can't stand to sit through another lecture
Once I was the kid in the front with the big wide eyes
Be the first one to say it's alright
Don't try to tell me it gets better
Yeah, right

Don't try to tell me it gets better (it gets better)
Can't stand to sit through another lecture (another lecture)
I hope that nothing lasts forever
I hope it passes with the weather
Is there better days? I don't remember
Don't try to tell me it gets

Don't try to tell me it gets better
Of course it doesn't
Can't stand to sit through another lecture
Once I was the kid in the front with the big wide eyes
Be the first one to say it's alright
Don't try to tell me it gets better
Yeah, right
