It Gets Better

Dear Cora
I'm writing to let you know that
It gets better
I hope you will be comforted by this letter
Next time those boys call you that don't let them

Trust me
I'm telling you that you should count yourself lucky
What you go through now will make you stronger
You're not gonna have to deal with this for much longer

In ten years you'll see
When it's a distant memory that
Life it is mysterious
Sometimes you gotta go through shit

It gets better
Promise you that everything will get better
Watch and see the future it'll be lighter
Give it time your light is gonna get brighter

There's a myth that life is over before you left home
Before you're grown, yeah
I thought that I had no future before I had a chance to make a plan
It gets better

Promise you that everything will get better
Watch and see the future it'll be lighter
Give it time your light is gonna get brighter

It gets better
Promise you that everything will get better
Watch and see the future it'll be lighter
Give it time your light is gonna get brighter

Trust me
Trust me
(Don't look back) trust me
(Don't look back) trust me
(Don't look back) trust me
(Don't look back)
