Better
I've been told by those who know better
'Cause people know better than me
That I gotta keep movin'
Forgive her, forget her
And let myself be free
Now I'm doin' my best
'Cause people know better than me
I've followed their words to the letter
'Cause people know better than me
And I've watched them unravel, untangle my sweater
Now I'm as naked as I can be
They say it's for the best
And people know better than me
They come to sympathize
Hearts wide open, wide open
Call me out to rise
Tell me that the sky's wide open
Analyze my mind, tell me what they find
Once they break it open, wide open
Do they realize their critical eyes and terrible lies
Tear me wide open, wide open?
My life's been tossed to the shredder
By people no better than me
Now I'm cold and I'm shakin'
I know I've been makin'
A mistake by leavin' you be
'Cause with you I'm at my best
And no one knows better
Better than me
'Cause people know better than me
That I gotta keep movin'
Forgive her, forget her
And let myself be free
Now I'm doin' my best
'Cause people know better than me
I've followed their words to the letter
'Cause people know better than me
And I've watched them unravel, untangle my sweater
Now I'm as naked as I can be
They say it's for the best
And people know better than me
They come to sympathize
Hearts wide open, wide open
Call me out to rise
Tell me that the sky's wide open
Analyze my mind, tell me what they find
Once they break it open, wide open
Do they realize their critical eyes and terrible lies
Tear me wide open, wide open?
My life's been tossed to the shredder
By people no better than me
Now I'm cold and I'm shakin'
I know I've been makin'
A mistake by leavin' you be
'Cause with you I'm at my best
And no one knows better
Better than me
