It Does Not Get Better

It does not get better, it just gets heavier
It does not get better, it just gets heavier
It does not get better, it just gets heavier

The days grew darker, shorter
Our own worlds weren't enough to help us
Stay above the weight of what the world really was
I saw it in your face every day when you returned
That no amount of stargazing would undo the hurt
I wanted to save you, but I was also stuck
If I cannot save you can we still be in love?

If it does not get better, will you still stay here?
If it does not get better, will you still stay here?
If it does not get better, will you still stay here?
If it does not get better, will you still stay here?

The days grew brighter, longer
We left the house again
We lost our keys, scraped our knees, and forgot our plans
I had a dream you laughed at me when I asked for help
But you were there when I awoke and your warmth I felt
Still every day nothing changed, I was locked in my head

But you stayed here and dried my tears on your sleeve and said
If it does not get better, at least we'll be together
If it does not get better, at least we'll be together
If it does not get better, at least we'll be together
If it does not get better, at least we'll be together
