Something Better
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Know what I’m expected to say
I guess you like it best that way
Yet again I think I’m trying to find
Something better
You were laying on a hospital bed
I knew what coulda been instead
Suddenly, another one just like me
What a nightmare
Shouting out something obscene
30 strangers had been staring at me
Cause I couldn’t even hide it at all
How pathetic
It’s like picking traits right out of a bag
Half of them I wish I’d give back
If you need me I’ll be trying to find
Something better
Somehow I would
Somehow I wouldn’t change
If sometimes I could just
Play the sideline
Pay me no mind
Somehow I would
Somehow I wouldn’t change
If sometimes I could just
Play the sideline
Pay me no mind
Trying not to say it’s the end
I wish my parents could be friends
But you can’t rewind to get what you want
Say the word, we’ll all go back in time
But then I get out of bed
Regretting all the shit that I said
Fucking crying out the name of a girl
That I’m dating
Somehow I would
Somehow I wouldn’t change
If sometimes I could just
Play the sideline
Pay me no mind
Somehow I would
Somehow I wouldn’t change
If sometimes I could just
Somehow I would
Somehow I wouldn’t change
If sometimes I could just
Play the sideline
Pay me no mind
Somehow I would
Somehow I wouldn’t change
