"Better Things" lyrics - MEMPHIS MAY FIRE

Growing pains, becoming who I was made to be
I try to walk away
But all my mistakes keep chasing me
I fall down when I'm alone
And temptation is on display
All these stains, they cover me
Memories that won't go away

[Pre-Chorus:]
But you say you'll carry my weight
Through the storm, cover my mistakes
You say to never be afraid
And hold onto the promises you made

[Chorus:]
I ran but you always chased me
I see you in my dreams, you are the air I breathe
And all the walls that I built are breaking
So now I see that you're leading me onward to better things
Onward to better things

I've seen the evidence
I've watched my heart change every day
Believe me when I say
This will never ever be easy but
I have seen and I believe
You hold my heart while it's breaking

[Chorus:]
I ran but you always chased me
I see you in my dreams, you are the air I breathe
And all the walls that I built are breaking
So now I see that you're leading me onward to better things

[Bridge:]
You never failed me
I fell away but you never left me
You never left me

[Hook:]
Temptation come my way
I am stronger now than I have ever been
Temptation come my way
I am stronger now than I have ever been
Temptation come my way
I am stronger now and I am not afraid!
I am stronger now and I am not afraid
You lead me to better things
Temptation come my way 'cause I am more than my mistakes

[Outro:]
I ran but you always chased me
I see you in my dreams, you are the air I breathe
And all the walls that I built are breaking
So now I see that you're leading me onward to better things
You never failed me
I fell away but you never left me
You never left me
