"You Deserve Better" lyrics

It's a bad day today
You don't need to say why
Don't have to explain away the tears in your eyes
We can go downtown
Spend all our savings
Hole up for a weekend and keep the world waiting

Cause sometimes the healing hurts more
So you stay where you are
Open wound in your heart
And you
Keep on bleeding cause you're used to the feeling
Control is the answer and change is the villain and

You deserve healing
You don't deserve that scar
You don't deserve feeling much smaller than you are
You deserve a childhood
With sunnier weather
You deserve love
You deserve better

You can lash out on me
I know you don't mean it
Broken people broke you; you can't help but repeat it
You worry I'd leave you
But darling I swear
I promised I'd love you I'm not going no where

Cause sometimes the healing hurts more
So you stay where you are
Open wound in your heart
And you
Keep on bleeding cause your used to the feeling
Control is the answer; change is the villain and

You deserve healing
You don't deserve that scar
You don't deserve feeling much smaller than you are
You deserve a childhood
With sunnier weather
You deserve love
You deserve better

So here's to us
And better days
A summer breeze
And sun rays
Ocean views
Clear skies
No abuse
A better life

You deserve healing
You don't deserve that scar
You don't deserve feeling much smaller than you are
You deserve a childhood
With sunnier weather
You deserve love
You deserve better
You deserve love
You deserve love
You deserve love
You deserve love
You deserve love
You deserve love
You deserve love
You deserve better
