better if i were her.

After the New Year's party
You gave me your lucky keychain
While we sat on the balcony
In the January air
But you gave her the other
She's like a pageant queen
So I tossed away my letter
How can I compare?

I don't feel any better
Unless I think of you
It hurts when I remember
That she thinks of you too

She's so tall and gorgeous
Confident, and I've already lost
'Cause her life is a movie
A-plus student, everything I'm not
And you don't care, and you don't care if I was hurt
'Cause I know you'd like me better if I were her

I see the way you stare
Like everybody else
You take her out to lunch
And I'm all by myself
I wish I had her style
I wish I had her hair
I wish people hated me too
And I wish I wouldn't care

I don't feel any better
Unless I think of you
It hurts when I remember
That she thinks of you too

She's so tall and gorgeous
Confident, and I've already lost
'Cause her life is a movie
A-plus student, everything I'm not
And you don't care, and you don't care if I was hurt
'Cause I know you'd like me better if I were her

Better if I were her (you don't care, you don't care)
Better if I were her (you don't care, you don't care)

So if you ever come crawling back to me
'Cause she left you for someone else
I will be there 'cause you're the only one I see
But you would probably hide me

Better if I were her (you don't care, you don't care)
Better if I were her (you don't care, you don't care)

I don't blame you for falling
For everything she does
If I were you, I'd fall too
And it's just because
I know it's no surprise that
Things aren't the way they were
Be honest, would you like me
Better if I were her?
