Things Look Brighter

Things Look Brighter Lyrics

she doesn't want to be
dead in the water, yet she swims out to sea

brave hearted girl
goes out to take on the world
but comes home crying every time
she doesn't sleep at night
she's afraid to close her eyes
I see her walking in the street sometimes

she knows about suffering
and all about sorrow
she's starving for the beautiful things
that people seem to believe in

she doesn't want to be
dead in the water, yet she swims out to sea

how long?
waited way too long
(don't let them fool you)

brave hearted girl
goes out to take on the world
but comes home crying every time
we're walking in the rain
she turns to me to say
I hope tomorrow doesn't feel this way

she's heard about happiness
she's heard about Jesus
she's starving for the beautiful things
that people seem to believe in

she doesn't want to be
dead in the water, yet she swims out to sea
