better than that

(Better than that, better than that)

I start awake
And I'll tell you I'm fine
I haven't really slept in days
But that happens all the time

There's days where I feel fake
There's times where my thoughts aren't mine
But I'll do whatever it takes
To keep my heart in line

I'm trying to be perfect
I know that sometimes that I'm not correct
I beat my heart until it bruises
My universe is wrecked

These broken mirrors show that I want to be good enough
My eyes always see the worst of myself
Can I make it through life when it's tough?

I put on a mask of deception
I stare at myself in the mirror
And to myself I'm thinking
I'm better than that
Better than that

I wish that I could change this
I wish that I was different
And to myself I'm thinking
I'm better than that
Better than that

I made mistakes before
That I cannot redo
I've hated change before
But I need something new

I set out to be perfect
But I fell to the ground
Nothing was worth it
I feel like I drowned

I'm trying to be perfect
I know that sometimes that I'm not correct
I beat my heart until it bruises
My universe is wrecked

These broken mirrors show that I want to be good enough
My eyes always see the worst of myself
Can I make it through life when it's tough?

I put on a mask of deception
I stare at myself in the mirror
And to myself I'm thinking
I'm better than that
Better than that

I wish that I could change this
I wish that I was different
And to myself I'm thinking
I'm better than that
Better than that
