Better Way Lyrics by Shawn McDonald

Closer

2011

Everybody wants, not everybody needs
Everybody hurts, not everybody bleeds
Everybody has words, sometimes is just talk
Everybody tries, not everybody walks
You got to redefine your mind
You got to redefine your mind
I believe there's a better way
Something's out of place, something's out of place
I believe there's a better way
Something's got to change, something's got to change
Something's got to change, something's got to change
So many things that are running around in you
So many things pulling and tugging you from what is true
Fight, give, stand and live for love
Fight, give, stand and live for love
You got to redefine your mind
I believe there's a better way
Something's out of place, something's out of place
I believe there's a better way
Something's got to change, something's got to change
Something's got to change, something's got to change
Man, these things, they just ain't fitting like pretty politicians
Hoping he can fix what's missing by taking out the competition
They like to yell and such, I like the softer touch
All they do is talk so much when all we need is change
Not monetarily, the end of the world is approaching scarily
Well, not to be personally but to a friend, I mind this terribly
Caught off guard when he realized that our love is hard
Then he realized that day to day he could find a better way
Sing it, there's got to be a better way you see
How 'bout the way it's supposed to be?
A better way you see
How 'bout the way it's supposed to be?
Everybody now
I believe there's a better way
Something's out of place, something's out of place
I believe there's a better way
Something's got to change, something's got to change
Something's got to change, something's got to change
I believe, yeah, there's a better way
