Little Bit Better

(album: Signs Of Life - 2020)

It's hard to put in words
Paint the way it hurts
No one understands so you lock it in
A safe that's made of glass
I can see right past
You're not fooling me, baby

I can't take you high enough
To rise above
Everything that makes you broken
But if you can let me in a little bit
I'll share the pain that you're not showing

It doesn't mean you're not strong
To need someone to lean on
But maybe I can make it a little bit better
I don't have an answer
Oh, I don't have a cure
But maybe we can make it a little bit better

Show me your shadow
How low you can go
Everything in you is brutally beautiful
Like a child running wild
Like a howl at the moon
I can handle it, baby
I can take some weight off you

But I can't take you high enough
To rise above
Everything that makes you broken
But if you can let me in a little bit
I'll share the pain that you're not showing

Doesn't mean you're not strong
To need someone to lean on
But maybe I can make it a little bit better
I don't have an answer
Oh, I don't have a cure
But maybe we can make it a little bit better
