Better Than That — текст песни (Darius Danesh)

I thought I knew you,

Better than I knew myself, girl,

I thought I found you,

Hiding in the strength thats in your eyes,

But now I see you,

Burning all the bridges in your world,

And now I feel you,

Sinking in the quicksand of your life



Cant you see that youre slipping away (oh)

Cant you hear what Im trying to say

(better than that)



Chorus:



Better than that

Stronger than that

(youre worth much more)

Youre better than that

And you can turn back

(whats tried is torn)

Better than that

Stronger than that

(youre worth much more)

Im telling you its killing you

Its drowning you, its spilling you over

(whats tried is torn)



I thought you knew how,

To chase away the demons of blind trust,

I thought you knew now,

Its all about temptation changed by choice,

You know youre crazy,

Youre hanging on to reasons turned to rust,

Your eyes are hazy,

Youve gone and lost the velvet in your voice



Cant you see that youre slipping away (oh)

Cant you hear what Im trying to say

(better than that)



Chorus



I told you once, I told you twice,

I told you, baby,

Now theres nothing more to say.

Im missing the girl I knew,

While Im kissing the broken you,

And cant you see youll be...



So dont back, face up to the facts

And you can turn back -

Youre better than that.



Better than that, stronger than that,

Wiser than that, bigger than that

Youre better than the devil in you

Tellin you how, pulling you down,

Spilling you out- but its up to you
