Lyrics

Better Days
By Tom Reardon
4/23/22

You don't know it yet, but ....

V1
You've been crying for three days
Drowning in a sea of sadness
Your emotions, emotions filled with rage
Ask people for help
but then push them away
You don't know it yet, but. You don't know it yet, but

Chorus
Better days are coming
There's a rainbow after the storm
You have people that love you
And will help you guide your boat to shore
Maybe not today, but someday soon
You'll find your way, my friend
Things will get clearer (things will get clearer)
When you can love yourself again
Better days are coming

V2
And you come off all bold and tough
Afraid to show your true self
Because you don't think it's enough
You stay with him because
being alone is just too much
You don't know it yet, but. You don't know it yet, but

Chorus

Interlude
You just don't know it yet, Oh better days are coming
You just don't know it yet

V3
Technology has you possessed
like a vampire that seeks blood
You feed off all the B.S.
Captivated by gossip
twenty-four seven obsessed
You don't know it yet. You don't know it yet.

Chorus

Outro
You just don't know it yet. You just don't know it yet.
You don't know it yet. You don't know it yet....
