lyrics

you never try when you say you're going to
and I'd imagine that you'd continue to be
the last thing on my mind
but the way that you confuse the two
between better and the better view is a shame

you were right about everything love
the stars are brighter as plastic in my room
than the view we get at night
looking back at you as you remove
the slack around your silken noose
to destroy the better sense your father gave
I think better you had thought of who
would set aside more time for you
than me

I believe in addiction
and a certain level of pride
just to keep myself intact
it's a curious system
to avoid how you thought you ought to be
to learn a better way

and you're fooling who you were trying to
just not the way you planned
don't come crawling back beside me in my bed
don't know what to do with the side of you
I just don't understand
to embrace the side on either side again
