It's been said that love is dangerous
I've been told that love is greed
It's been said that love's unworthy, yeah
I've been told many times before
Better days, a song for myself
Better days, a song for you all
Better days, the bird will sing
Better days, a song away
It's been said that love is pain relief
I've been told that love is slavery
It's been said that love is loneliness
I've been told many times before
Better days, a song for myself
Better days, a song for you all
Better days, the bird will sing
Better days, a song away
What you want is what you get
And how you get it is up to you
What you want is what you get
And how you get it is up to you
What you want is what you get
And how you get it is up to you
What you want is what you get
And how you get it is up to you
Time and time will only tell
The future brings no prayers for God
The beauty of sorrow belongs to us
Are we prisoners of ourselves?
Wake up, it's time to stand
It's time to think for yourself
It's time to stand up and speak for yourself
It's time to stand up and speak for yourself
One thing for myself
I don't need nobody else
I won't be disappointed
I can't get all that I wanted
One thing for myself
I don't need nobody else
I won't be disappointed
I can't get all that I wanted
You better take some for yourself
You better take some for your heart
You better take a little myself
You better take some away
