Better Of Me

It opened up Pandora's box

And it all came rushing out like water

Trapped inside a pressurised vat

I lay crooked on the stairs

Picking fights with my reflection

Trying to pry out some answers from that idiot

I spent many days taking walks around the haunts

That you and I spent all our adolescent life

You hurt my heart and subsequently I hurt others

And I'm no further than I was before

God! You really got the better of me

God! You really got the better of me

And I hated you, I was so jealous of your standing

And I envied your happy family

Oh, I looked like shit, stuck in all my vice rotations

Trying to find light in every broken soul

I convinced myself that you were just another chemical

That needed to be sweated out

Until I saw you on the beach, birthing smiles

In every passerby that caught your beautiful eye

God! You really got the better of me

God! You really got the better of me

God! You really got the better of me

God! You really got the better of me

God! You really got the better of me
