Better This Way

It feels since I've seen you, and nothing ever seems to Put an end to my heartache the same way that my dreams do I close my eyes and see your face, it seems so strange Since you're miles away and I'm in such a strange place My strange days have left me emotionally drained And with no hopes of being saved I guess I'm focused on pain With so much space between us, you still feel so close We're where nobody can reach us I give you every word I wrote And for all the words I say I know I could never explain The truth hurts sometimes, but you know I never complain I never hide the way I felt on that fateful day Now we both lost our ways, maybe we'll make it someday If I could turn this world around And spin it back to that moment in time When you told me your heart And your soul would always be mine Now I sit and wait in vain, I hear your tears spill 'Til we meet again someday, maybe we won't maybe we will I'd sing you most beautiful love song If I could find the words to say If I could paint you a picture It'd be in resemblence to Alex Grey Though we are miles apart our hearts beat just the same The feeling remains, it's our minds that constantly change Oh, but it's better this way I've never known no different so how could I complain? It's just better this way And life keeps dragging on, my debts they go unpaid Few and far between have become my better days But I keep holding on thinking something's gonna change All the reasons that I should've left, tell me why did I stay? I guess it's better this way I've never known no different so how could I complain? I guess it's better this way I guess it's better this way You see, she is the one that knows my weakness A smoke can seem to screech hiss That's the only type that she gives I await for an even warmer embrace from the same grace And I just pray that if I leave that she will always save my place 'Cause I savour her taste even though it seems poisonous Voices inside are telling me I suffocate from avoiding this So I'm enjoying this, mask an abstract Masochist, half horrific, in love with a destroying kiss Last time I spoke to her my words were a little too sloppy Not even bullets hit as hard as the look that she shot me Her spirit popped me, her expression's a deadly weapon She's fully automatic, 66 shots come every second But every first has already occured I know from her that some emotions grow too heavy for words And they're dangerous to a man like me I'm more tuned from a risk that was full warred But you can't stand like me No matter what your plan might be Resistance is useless, she's unconquerable Witness the havoc that she produces You're incapable to ignore it, her thoughts are unbreakable forces One look and you're trapped in an inescapable fortress I guess it's better this way I've never known no different so how can I complain? I guess it's better this way I guess it's better this way I guess it's better this way I've never known no different so how can I complain? I guess it's better this way I guess it's better this way I guess it's better this way
