Christine Nguyen - Better Days Lyrics

What would
You tell yourself
If you
Could turn back
I would tell younger me
Take the time that you need just to breathe
Back then when we
Never had to worry we were so naive
When I was a younger girl
I wasn't so hardened by the world
Why did I want to be older
Now our youth is over
I've got low hopes I have little to no expectations
Whatever happens is gonna happen
I can't believe I grew so cold
We spent our whole lives
Wanting to just grow up
Can't turn back the clock
I used to have so much love
Now i'm
So cynical
My past problems
Don't seem so cruel
Family barely had enough to get by
I used to think the limit was the sky
My imagination seemed to fade away
And I know I've seen better days
Want to be innocent again
Seen too much and I've lost a lot of friends
Never liked to watch my tongue
Said what I wanted just to anyone
I miss being a kid
I never should have focused on tryna fit in
Being different was something that I should have cherished
I regret not listening more to my parents
I've got low hopes I have little to no expectations
Whatever happens is gonna happen
I can't believe I grew so cold
We spent our whole lives
Wanting to just grow up
Can't turn back the clock
I used to have so much love
Now i'm
So cynical
My past problems
Don't seem so cruel
But I'll be fine (I'll be fine)
I'll always get by (I'll always get by)
Oh i'll be fine (I'll be fine)
