Scarlet Pleasure Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh some day
It's gonna be a really bright day
So much brighter than it is right now
It gets better, it gets better
Yeah someday, it will fall in to place
See those cracks there in the cloud
It gets better, it gets better

Life can me tough man, life can be hard
Been down here for so long
I don't feel anything now
I wanna get up, I wanna get out
Try to tell my self
You can do anything, You can to anything

Ooh someday
It's gonna be a really bright day (bright day)
So much brighter than it is right now
It gets better, it gets better (better)
Yeah someday, it will fall in to place (it will fall into place)
See those cracks there in the cloud
It gets better, it gets better

Black, white, no light, that's all, I get up
Black, white, no light, that's all, I get up
Black, white, no light, that's all, I get up
I get up, I get up, I get up, I get up

I'll be back on my feet, yeah
I'll be back up (i'll be back up)
Been down here for so long
I don't feel anything now (anything now)
I wanna be free, yeah
I wanna give love
Like my mama said
"You can do anything, You can do anything (anything)"

Ooh someday
It's gonna be a really bright day (bright day)
So much brighter than it is right now
It gets better, it gets better (better)
Yeah someday, it will fall in to place
See those cracks there in the cloud
It gets better, it gets better

Black, white, no light, that's all, I get up
Black, white, no light, that's all, I get up
Black, white, no light, that's all, I get up
I get up, I get up, I get up, I get up

Black, white, no light, that's all, I get up
Black, white, no light, that's all, I get up
Black, white, no light, that's all, I get up
I get up, I get up, I get up, I get up

Black, white, no light, that's all, I get up
Black, white, no light, that's all, I get up

Black, white, no light, that's all, I get up
I get up, I get up, I get up, I get up
