It Only Gets Much Worse Lyrics

It Only Gets Much Worse - Nate Ruess

...

I was born before the storm

My mother placed a dozen thorns

The sorry's and the take it back's

Lay silent in her folded hands and

Head to headstone I just danced

Oblivious to consequence

As morning sank into the ground

The highest branch I sorted out

Oh, I didn't mean to let it go

I didn't mean to bruise but I lost control

And when she said to me it's still a ghost[?]

All your love may fade away

All you'll become may all go to waste

So I can't stand to hear you say it hurts

When it only gets much worse

It only gets much worse

Oh you caught me come to life

The moment when your eyes met mine

And from your bed, the sun came in

And to this day it never set

But here's to this I'm used to it[?]

I stepped out for some cigarettes

The neon lights they called me in

Her eyes like yours, just different

And no, I didn't mean to let you go

I didn't mean to bruise but I lost control

What didn't mean a thing destroyed us both

Darling

All your love may fade away

All you'll become may all go to waste

So I can't stand to hear you say it hurts

When it only gets much worse

It only gets much worse

I couldn't quite believe

The way you used to pull me down

It takes its toll[?]

I survived

The laws of gravity

Destroyed some property

I would not let them sink their teeth into my soul

Whoa-oh

All I love may fade away

All I become may all go to waste

So I can't stand, hear it say it hurts

When it only gets much worse

All I love may fade away

All we'll become may all go to waste

So I can't stand to hear you say it hurts

When it only gets much worse

It only gets much worse
