Laura Shay Better Land lyrics

Every morning, I take the pill the doctor gave me
It helps me keep my sanity
I'm sick of the world telling me what's wrong with me
I can't believe that I define myself by what I see on TV
Still I take it personally if you don't like what you see
I know I shouldn't, but it's me they're selling in the music industry
creativity is cheap

I wanna pack my things and blow this town
I wanna kiss you right here and now
I wanna play real hard and sing real loud
and if you don't like it, well then get the hell out

Chorus
‘Cause tonight lets smoke like chimneys and drink like fish
Lets get on the freeway and blare 7 Year Bitch
When you don't want the world to seem so bad
Come with me, we'll close our eyes and make a better land

So I'm walking down on South Street
and the Jesus freaks are approaching me
Come into the light, fight the good fight, make the wrong right
oh don't tell me how to live my life


I wanna run through graveyards and wake the dead
I wanna forget the bullshit that I've been fed
I wanna turn reality into pretend
and if you don't like it you can say you knew me when

Chorus

So the gig is over, we hit the diner, it's 2 am
we're winding down again
but I need something more than coffee running through my veins
I gotta get out of this place

I just wanna make love with myself
I wanna love you and hate everyone else
I wanna change the hand that I've been dealt
and if you don't like it, well then, go fuck yourself

Chorus
