Better Songtext
von Ricky Reed

Come so many miles
And memories from that block
Feels like I jumped on a silver bird
And never came back

I never get to see you
But you always hold me down
You never fault me when I leave you
I′m finally coming back around

It's like I never get a minute
Feels like I′m never not on tour
Sometimes I start to miss you
What am I doing all this for?


I wanted to be better, a better brother
To be there for my sister, no father figure
Come home for the summer, be with my mother
I'm not an only son, but where is my brother?
Protect her from the bad man, come from the gutter
She said she'd be okay and I had to trust her
Sometimes you gotta leave, you don′t even wanna
Sometimes you gotta leave, you don′t even wanna

Never get much time at home usually
Yeah, it's always on standby
But you by my side anyway, yeah
Getting real comfortable just sitting in the same place
It′s kinda weird that I can put away my suitcase
I'm trying to take advantage of all of the same space
That I share with you

It′s like our time is on a meter
Until I go back out on tour
It's like I never get to see you
What am I doing all this for?

I wanted to be better, a better brother
To be there for my sister, no father figure
Come home for the summer, be with my mother
I′m not an only son, but where is my brother?
Protect her from the bad man, come from the gutter
She said she'd be okay and I had to trust her
Sometimes you gotta leave, you don't even wanna
Sometimes you gotta leave, you don′t even wanna


Fly with me, fly with me
′Cause you know we don't got long
Fly with me, fly with me
Sometimes you gotta
Sometimes I get to stay behind
And enjoy life, that′s the point of nine to five, to five
Waiting for the wait time
It's a way of mind, sometimes I leave and don′t even wanna

I wanted to better, a better sister
Be there for my brother, you know I love you
Be there for my mom, she know all my songs, yeah
I don't wanna leave, I just really wanna
Be there for my daddy, he need a side kick
Be there for my best friend, someone to kick with
But this high demand shit fuck with my plans, yeah
Sometimes you gotta leave, you don′t even wanna
