To Be Better Lyrics

Break the hard chains of fate

Roads we walk we create

For our futures are wide and vast

To respect and respond

To add strength to our bond

Cast the fury into the past

I can choose to be better at last

Through all the pain I've grown

Warm up this old heart of stone

Leave the hurt behind

Tearing the threads of the tethers

Leave the hurt behind

We can choose to be better

We can choose to be better

Crush the bones of despair

In the jaws of the bear

Prophecies may come to pass

Keep the beast deep within

Always under the skin

Let it claw through the mirror's glass

I can choose to be better at last

And even a heart of stone

Can warm when no longer alone

Leave the hurt behind

Tearing the threads of the tethers

Leave the hurt behind

We can choose to be better

We can choose to be better

In this winter of woe

Seeds of hope they still grow

Sheets of white over rock and grass

From contempt I have turned

Now I'm just trying to learn

Burning skies now overcast

I can choose to be better at last

Leave the hurt behind

Tearing the threads of the tethers

Leave the hurt behind

We can choose to be better

We can choose to be better
