Better Than It Was Before Lyrics

I don't mind the weather

So long as it moves

When you're light as a feather

It wears down your shoes

I know I done nearly everything that I could ever hope to do

I know you give off the feeling like you're really only passing through

And I know that you're probably listening

With an ear to the ground

I hope you can hear that there's no one around

You cling to a fragment

Of a life you once knew

When the weather is stagnant

It's not hard to do

I know I said all the words that I could ever hope to say

The speed that you're coming you can only drift away

I know that you're probably listening

With an ear to the floor

With a map in your hand and one foot out the door

I hope things are better now than they were before

And I know that you're probably listening

With an ear to the floor

The wandering footsteps won't sound anymore

I hope things are better now than they were before
