A Better Son/daughter Lyrics - The Execution Of All Things - Rilo Kiley

Sometimes in the morning I am petrified and can't move 

Awake but cannot open my eyes 

And the weight is crushing down on my lungs 

I know I can't breathe 

And hope someone will save me this time 

And your mother's still calling you insane and high 

Swearing it's different this time 

And you tell her to give in to the demons that possess her 

And that god never blessed her insides 

Then you hang up the phone and feel badly for upsetting things 

And crawl back into bed to dream of a time 

When your heart was open wide and you love things just because 

Like the sick and dying 

 

And sometimes when you're on 

You're really fucking on 

And your friends they sing along 

And they love you 

But the lows are so extreme 

That the good seems fucking cheap 

And it teases you for weeks in its absence 

But you'll fight and you'll make it through 

You'll fake it if you have to 

And you'll show up for work with a smile 

And you'll be better 

You'll be smarter 

More grown up and a better daughter or son 

And a real good friend 

And you'll be awake 

You'll be alert 

You'll be positive though it hurts 

And you'll laugh and embrace all of your friends 

And you'll be a real good listener 

You'll be honest 

You'll be brave 

You'll be handsome and you'll be beautiful 

You'll be happy 

 

Your ship may be coming in 

You're weak but not giving in 

To the cries and the wails of the valley below 

Your ship may be coming in 

You're weak but not giving in 

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