Better
Resisting the Chains of Past Love: A Journey Through 'Better'
Lyrics
You can't just walk in
You cannot enter casually
Looking like that
Your appearance is striking
With the way that you're talking
The way you speak
You got me under attack
You've put me in a vulnerable position
You see, I got over you
I moved on from our past relationship
Forgot about the love we had
Forgotten the love we once shared
You're taking me to the old days
You're evoking memories of the past
Making me want you back
Stirring up a desire for you again
I told you I was better
I previously informed you of improvement
My feelings had changed
My emotions have transformed
There wasn't a chance
No possibility existed
I'd love you again
To love you once more
But when you walked in
Upon your entrance
Talking like that
Speaking in a certain way
You got all these birds squarking
Causing disturbance among observers
Trying to work out where we're at
Attempting to understand our situation
They say' these guys are overdue' and
Observers suggest we need a change
I hope what they say is true
Hoping their observation is accurate
Cause I'm thinking it's about time
Feeling it's the right time
For us to get back on track
To reestablish our connection
I told you I was better
Reiterating previous improvement
My feelings had changed
Emotions have undergone a change
There wasn't a chance
No possibility existed
I'd love you again
To love you once more
But I told you I was better
Repeated affirmation of improvement
When you were away
During your absence
Now you're back in my life
You've reentered my life
And my heart is in chains
Resulting in emotional confinement
I don't know why I thought I'd be ok
Confusion about my well-being
When I used to drop to the ground after seeing your face
Historically, your presence affected me deeply
I was foolish to think that my love would have faded
Incorrectly believed my love had diminished
Now I'm down on the floor waiting for you to save me
Currently in a state of waiting for rescue
My feelings had changed
Emotions have undergone a change
There wasn't a chance
No possibility existed
I'd love you again
To love you once more
But I told you I was better
Reiterated improvement despite challenges
When you were away
During your absence
Now you're back in my life
You've reentered my life
And my heart is in chains
Resulting in emotional confinement
My world is in tatters
My world is in disarray
My body is drained
Physically and emotionally exhausted
Your love's all that matters
Your love is the only significant factor
I told you I was better
Reiterated improvement despite challenges
When you were away
During your absence
Now you're back in my life
You've reentered my life
And my heart is in chains
Resulting in emotional confinement
