Been Better Lyrics

Tell me none of your longings
I don't need them or you
And leave me none of your wisdom
I don't need your lies or your truths

I've been better when the sky was red
and a face like yours couldn't make me scared
I've been better with the things I said
when I took the lead instead of being led

Feed me none of your lines
I won't fall for them, cause I'll lose
And hold me to none of my words
I don't mean them when I'm with you

And the cars streak past with a life inside
Why is my life in your eyes?
And the windows glow with the hearts they've known
Why is my heart never mine?

I've been better when the sky was red
and a face like yours couldn't make me scared
I've been better with the things I said
when I took the lead instead of being led

I've been better when the sky was red
and a face like yours couldn't make me scared
I've been better with the things I said
when I took the lead instead of being lead

I've been better, I've been better
