It Gets Better Lyrics by Dotan

7 Layers (Special Edition) (Spotify version)

2014

[Verse 1]
There's paper peeling off the walls
I see the paint from yesteryear
We try to cover up the past
But tiny secrets still appear

[Chorus]
So please don't say it gets better
It gets better, it gets better, oh, with time
I'm not better, we're not better
Even after all this time

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh

[Verse 2]
The kitchen floor is a checkered board
We've tried to end this game for years
The tiles are cracked, the colours changed
The battleground has all but cleared

[Chorus]
So please don't say it gets better
It gets better, it gets better, oh, with time
I'm not better, we're not better
Even after all this time

[Bridge]
Caught in the cobwebs
Memories linger in these rooms
Under the floorboards
Sweeping the stories we outgrew
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 3]
It's not a place I'd call a home
Just a place we've been for years
The garden weeds have overgrown
We've overstayed our welcome here

[Chorus]
So please don't say it gets better
It gets better, it gets better, oh, with time
I'm not better, we're not better
Even after all this time
It gets better, it gets better
It gets better, oh, with time
I'm not better, we're not better
Even after all this time

[Outro]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
