Testo I Wanna Get Better - MTV Unplugged - Bleachers
Testo della canzone I Wanna Get Better - MTV Unplugged (Bleachers), tratta dall'album MTV Unplugged
You guys are here, the band's here
And we're essentially celebrating
Um, music that we, we both care about
And uh, that's so, that um-
So making the records can be really harsh and
And very intense and kinda pull you apart but, um
I look forward to celebrating it with you guys
Which is the story of this song
This is a song about loss and depression, anxiety and etc., etc.
And we got to spend the last three years shouting it together
It's called "I Wanna Get Better"
Hey, I hear the voice of a preacher from the back room
Calling my name and I follow just to find you
I trace the faith to a broken down television, put on the weather
And I've trained myself to give up on the past 'cause I
Froze in time between hearses and caskets
Lost control when I panicked at the acid test
(I wanna get better)
While my friends were getting high
And chasing girls down parkway lines
I was losing my mind because the love
The love, the love, the love, the love
That I gave was wasted on a nice face
In a blaze of fear I put a helmet on a helmet
Counting seconds through the night, I got (carried away)
So I'm standing on the overpass screaming at myself, hey
(I wanna get better)
Didn't know I was lonely 'til I saw your face
I wanna get better and better, better, better
I wanna get (better)
Didn't know I was broken 'til I wanted to change
I wanna get better and better, better, better
I wanna get (better)
To my room where there's girls on the ceiling
Cut out their pictures and I chase that feeling
Of an 18 year old who didn't know what loss was
Now I'm a stranger
And I miss the days of a life still permanent
Mourn the years before I got (carried away)
So I'm standing on the interstate screaming at myself
(Hey, I wanna get better)
I didn't know I was lonely 'til I saw your face
(I wanna get better, better, better, better)
(I wanna get better)
I didn't know I was broken 'til I wanted to change
(I wanna get better, better, better, better)
I wanna get better
'Cause I'm sleeping in the back of a taxi
I'm screaming out my bedroom window
Even if it's gonna kill me, hey
You know that I woke up this morning early before my family
From this dream she was tryin' to show me
How a life can move from the darkness
Yeah, she said to get better
So I put a bullet where I shoulda put a helmet
And I crashed my car 'cause I wanna get (carried away)
That's why I'm standing on the overpass screaming at myself
(Hey, I wanna get better)
Didn't know I was lonely 'til I saw your face
(I wanna get better, better, better, better)
(I wanna get better)
I didn't know I was broken 'til I wanted to change
(I wanna get better, better, better, better)
(I wanna get better)
I love you Jersey
I love you Stone Pony
Thank you so much
