Lyrics

Better Than That

When I know better but I lose my footing
Cause I want what I want and nobody’s looking
And I tell myself that I won’t regret it 
A moment of guilt then I’ll just forget it

Cause everyone does it so I twist and turn it
And I make excuses like nobody’s perfect
What’s right and what’s wrong aren’t they just illusions
It’s just a small thing and I’m only human

It’s your voice in my ear
Even when you’re not here
In my moments of weakness bringing me back
With four words stopping me dead in my tracks
Telling me “You’re better than that”

When I blur lines that I know that I shouldn’t
And harbour intentions that I wish I wouldn’t
Abandon my judgement and think nothing of it
When I start believing that I am above it

If only you thought less of me than you do
Living up to that would be easy  

But knowing I’m someone that you can believe in
Gives me a faith I find myself needing
Though I’ve given up on those that would doubt me
What drives me to prove that you’re right about me…

Is your voice in my ear
Even when you’re not here
In my moments of weakness bringing me back
With four words stopping me dead in my tracks
Your voice I hear
Only your voice making it clear
In my moments of weakness bringing me back
With four words stopping me dead in my tracks
Telling me “You’re better than that”
