Somebody very close to me when through their very first breakup/heartbreak this week. I wrote this song for them. Though they don’t know it yet
Things Will Only Get Better
Words and Music by HB Radke
Well I hear you broke your heart for the very first time
You try but you can’t shake this awful frame of mind
You just can’t eat or sleep and you feel like you’re dyin’
One minute you’re laughing the next one you’re cryin’
I know that life is feeling unfair
and it seems like the people around you don’t care
But I’ve got a little secret to share
Things will only get better
Right now you’re living underneath a giant cloud
You feel like you’re all alone even in a big crowd
You want to show your feelings but it just ain’t allowed
And your innervoice is yelling “Call Them!” really loud
Love is just like fortune and cash
You have it one minute then its gone in a flash
So before you go and do something rash
Things will only get better
I know that you’re living in your own private personal hell
And I know you don’t believe me but I promise that I’ve been there as well
So when you’re sittin’ all alone with your self-doubt in the dark
Remember that its bite ain’t as bad as its bark
And though you feel your love life is jumping the shark
It gets better
Its written that time will mend all broken hearts
Let’s see them try to say that with theirs ripped apart
If this is how love ends then why even start?
Just take some time to get the horse before the cart
As certain as the stars in the sky
All off sudden in the blink of an eye
You’ll find yourself in love feeling like you can fly
Things will only get better
