A Better Place - The Outcome

She’s got me calling up and showing off my pride

I know it’s out of touch, but progress takes its precious time

I know I’m good enough

(For the first time in a long, long while)

Pretty picture us

(Open up and speak your beautiful mind)

Little girl why do you try

To pretend you’re practical

(oh oh oh oh oh)

I can see right through your eyes

I’m done with acting rational

(oh oh oh oh oh)

I don’t know, I don’t know

I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know

She took my innocence and opened up my mind

I gave it all I had and left the demons far behind

And where you want to be is

(Another place where no one else will know)

The only guarantee is

(Wherever it is there’s no where else to go)

Little girl why do you try

To pretend you’re practical

(oh oh oh oh oh)

I can see right through your eyes

I’m done with acting rational

(oh oh oh oh oh)

And you know that I’m here for you just to create a diversion

From the way that the world’s lost control, but that’s okay

We can drive all the way until we get to the ocean

Just to see how the sunrise reflects off of your skin

I can’t imagine a better place

Little girl why do you try

To pretend you’re practical

(oh oh oh oh oh)

I can see right through your eyes

I’m done with acting rational

(oh oh oh oh oh)

Little girl why do you try

I don’t know, I don’t know

I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know

(oh oh oh oh oh)

I can see right through your eyes

I don’t know, I don’t know

I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know

(oh oh oh oh oh)

I don’t know, I don’t know

I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know
