Better Than We Found It Lyrics

I've been MIA for too long, I know

I guess I couldn't stay, I found my way back home

Funny how things change, this ain't the place I know

I guess I'll set the pace at the place I grow

And I know that you are probably not too proud of me

But look up at the stars, we were not made to be ordinary

Yeah, ever since I was a kid, knew there was more than this

They taught us all about the money, never how to live

Find a good job and a decent relationship

But what's it worth when you're finished?

Yeah, looking up at the stars thinking maybe one day you'll be one

But what if we are already?

Look deep into your heart, find the fire burning like the sun

You'll see that your soul is ready

I don't wanna change the world

I just wanna leave it better than I found it

I just wanna heal the hurt

I feel your pain let me help you get around it

'Cause I know when the world gets cold and there's nowhere left to go

So much pain leaves us feeling alone

We can leave it better than we found it

Better than we found it

Yeah, I've been up all night singing all these notes

Expressing my soul through the words I wrote

When I'm feeling low, this is the place I go

It's how I share my heart, it's all I really know

And I know that you are busy out there judging me

But look up at the stars, why would you wanna live ordinary?

Hold it down for me

I know you don't feel happy

You can put your trust in me

We can leave this better than we found it

Hold it down for me

I know you don't feel happy

You can put your trust in me

Don't wanna leave 'til it's better

I don't wanna change the world

I just wanna leave it better than I found it

I just wanna heal the hurt

I feel your pain let me help you get around it

'Cause I know when the world gets cold and there's nowhere left to go

So much pain leaves us feeling alone

We can leave it better than we found it

Better than we found it
