about

Better is the onion of pop songs. On the outside you’ll find bouncy pop girl power and at its core, you’ll find the yearning that comes with trying to repair a lifelong broken relationship.

lyrics

Didn’t want my whole life changing overnight
Gonna lose this game we’re playing to make it right
Something’s sad about this easy road
I can feel the affliction about to take a hold

You thought I was told to give it up
My heart open what am I doing it for
I’m breaking out ‘cause I need more
In love with the hope of fixing you up
But I’ve woken up more than ever before
I close that door
I’ve never been so sure

They all tell me I should find some peace of mind
I just want it to be out of sight
I’m tired of waiting for you
I fall deeper every time it can’t be right
I just want it to be better
I just want it to be better

Spilling over into all I have left
Can’t see another reason to get out of my bed
Something’s sad about you trying to keep me close
Got another addiction to being out in the cold.

If I told you what I’m thinking of
If I told you I wasn’t ready for more
A shadow over what I thought I knew before
I’m done with the hope of fixing you up
Feels like there’s nowhere to go anymore
I close that door, I’ve never been so sure.

They all tell me I should find some peace of mind
I just want it to be out of sight
I’m tired of waiting for you
I fall deeper every time it can’t be right
I just want it to be better
I just want it to be better
I just want it to be
