I'm looking for better things
things that I have not found
in a place where I can speak freely
and safety lies all around

I'm looking for better things
things hidden away by fright
the longest night might hint to them
but then they'll never seem right

Oh, we'll spend this time together
Only to be ripped apart
Oh, we'll keep climbing that ladder
Only to fall from the top

I'm looking for better things
things that will never break
we'll borrow them from our fairy tales
and hope that they're not fake

I'm looking for better things
all those things always one step ahead
Maybe, just maybe they may come tomorrow
So I'll wait for that instead

Oh, we'll spend this time together
Only to be ripped apart
Oh, we'll keep climbing that ladder
Only to fall from the top

I'm looking for better things
I'm looking for better things
Still looking for better things
We're all looking for better things
