Better

Elevate my energy
Mix and match this chemistry
To find the highest point
Of an emotional rollercoaster
Up and down, round and round we go
Lord knows you deserve better
But she deserves no less than the best that you can offer up
You deserve better
But what becomes of you when the best has left and gone and slipped away
There she goes with hope again
It's dangerous messing around with that thing
It's delicate, it's intricate, it's bold
It's too hard to leave, but she's got a hold on me
Chorus
In a world of pain and love
That's just been rusting in the rain
You could set hearts on fire
With the flame that remains
In between bittersweet and better things
You deserve better
But she deserves no less than the best that you can offer
You deserve better
But what becomes of you when the best has left and gone and slipped
The best has left and gone and slipped
The best has left and gone and slipped away
