better days


I was looking for inspiration
when I saw you
I thought you could save me
from the boredom of my mind
I could do anything
that I want to
but I couldn't leave
the thought of you behind

I crossed the highest bridges
in the city
to see if you were anywhere
I might be able to go
I was living in depression
and self pity
realizing you were someone
who I would never know

          save me from myself
          and all my selfish ways
          when I look at you
          all I see are better days

I tried to take a photograph
inside my own mind
I developed it and placed it
in my picture book
you were what 
I always hoped I'd find
now I wish I'd taken
another second look

          save me from myself
          and all my selfish ways
          when I look at you
          all I see are better days
