Better Man

Take it and turns to ignite
Watch me unravel him
I'd rather spend time with my friends
Than go through this shit again

Why can't you admit that you're not really managing
You'd rather spend time in your head
Than try to stop this happening

Now I need something more
Than this common aggression
I don't wanna lick you right in the eye
It doesn't take a fist
To make an impression
Don't you tell me what it feels like

I'm coming out for a beating
Come on and give me a bruise
Do you know what I'm thinking?
I am, a better man than you

Now I know that you're seething
I've gotta give you the cues
If your heart isn't bleeding then I know I'm
A Better Man than you

Take it in turns to inspire
A little malcontent
I'd rather hide under these wings
From all this dissonance
Oh, why can't you admit that you're losing
Your grip on sanity
Oh I'd rather spend time in my cell
Than feed this vanity

And now I need so much more
Than a crippled messiah
Did you want me to be one of the guys?
As I look into the face of your fallen empire
Won't you tell me what it feels like

To call you out on a beating
Come on and give me a bruise
Do you know what I'm thinking?
I am, a Better Man than you

And now I know that you're seething
I've gotta give you the cues
If your heart isn't bleeding then I know I'm
A Better Man than you

Take it in turns
Oh, take it in turns
Oh, take it in turns
Take

How I need you to be the one I admire
You would weep if you could see through my eyes
How your love is a trick
You're like some kind of delight
And you should know what it feels like
(Should know what it feels like)

To take another one of your beatings
Come on and give me a bruise
You know what I'm thinking
Well I am, a better man than you

But now I know that you're seething
I've gotta give you the truth
That if your heart isn't bleeding then I know I'm
A Better Man than you
