Lirik Lagu A Better Son/Daughter – Rilo Kiley

 

G##                             C             G#

Sometimes in the morning i am petrified and can’t move

B F# C#

Awake but cannot open my eyes F# B F#

And the weight is crushing down on my lungs i know i can’t breath B F# C#

And hope someone will save me this time F# B F#

Your mother’s still calling you insane and high

B F# C#

Swearing it’s different this time F# B F#

And you tell her to give in to the demons that possess her B F# C#

And that god ever blessed her insides F# B F#

Then you hang up the phone and feel badly for upsetting things B F# C#

And crawl back into bed to dream of a time F# B F# B

When your heart was open wide and you loved things just because F# C#

Like the sick and the dying F# B F#

And sometimes when you’re on you’re really fucking on B F# C#

And your friends they sing along and they love you F# B F#

But the lows are so extreme that the good seems fucking cheap B F# C#

And it teases you for weeks in its absense F#

But you’ll fight and you’ll make it through B F#

You’ll fake it if you have to B F# C#

And you’ll show up for work with a smile F#

And you’ll be be better you’ll be smarter B F#

More grown up and a better daughter B F# C#

Or son and a real good friend F#

And you’ll be awake and you’ll be alert B F#

You’ll be positive though it hurts B F# C#

And you’ll laugh and embrace all your friends F#

And you’ll be a real good listener B F#

You’ll be honest you’ll be brave B F#

You’ll be handsome you’ll be beautiful C#

You’ll be happy

 

G C G C G D x2 F#

Your ship may be coming in B F#

You’re weak but not giving in B F# C#

To the cries and the wails of the valley below F#

Your ship may be coming in B F#

You’re weak but not giving in B F# C#

And you’ll fight it you’ll go out fighting all of them
