Better Than I Know
/I don't want to be sad anymore
I wish I could let the anger fade
but my soul is fighting me
each step of the way
on the other side
the grass is greener
and the past is dead
so why can't I go forward?
people keep telling me:
it's better than I know
the heart heals at a slow rate
and mine's still on the mend
I can't let go of the chapter
that saw to my bitter end
what is it that haunts the inside of me?
Is it better left unknown?
Or will the ghosts of me be released nonetheless?
on the other side
grief no longer exists
and love is alive and well
I can hear the whispers
of what life can give:
it's better than I know
deep in the trenches of this warfare
I feel the good side winning over me
it's time to give up this crusade
and come back to my home...
however, unspoken secrets lurk
and those soldiers know me
better than I know myself
so I guess it's time to surrender
the cross's remnants I have left
on the other side
I relinquished the pain
by taking it into myself
and this new life will become:
better than I know
