Better

You undress me with your eyes
I turn away to cleanse my mind
Before we make up for lost time

It's the way you brush my arm
And the way we stare too long
As if she's nothing when your gone

Still somewhere between
The truth and your make believe
I can see where it leads
Till you stand in front of me

I guess I lied when I said I
Wanted better this time
I let you hold me when it hurts
For a second put me first

I'd find someone to take your place
But would he know me in this way?
Almost convinced myself that I
Wanted better, guess I lied

Another month you're passing through
Playing pretend, and watch me play the fool
Know I'll bend the rules and choose
For you to fill me up to hold me over

I still hold an empty seat
You say to save it when you're next to me
Way I people please for ya
To find out that I'm just

Still somewhere between
The truth and your make believe
I can see where it leads
Till you stand in front of me

I guess I lied when I said I
Wanted better this time
I let you hold me when it hurts
For a second put me first

I'd find someone to take your place
But would he know me in this way?
Almost convinced myself that I
Did I convince myself that I
Wanted better guess I lied

I'm just a good girl
Good dreams
A safety net with holes in between
Why do good girls not get good things
And left on empty depleted

I'm just a good girl
With good dreams
Your safety net with holes in between
Why do good girls not get good things
And left on empty

I guess I lied when I said I
Wanted better this time
I let you hold me when it hurts
For a second put me first

I'd find someone to take your place
But he won't know me in this way
Almost convinced myself that I
Wanted better, Guess I Lied
