Better Than That - Darius
I thought I knew you
Better than I knew myself girl
I thought I found you
Hiding in the strength that's in your eyes
But now I see you
Burning all the bridges in your world
And now I feel you
Sinking in the quicksand of your life
Can't you see that you're slipping away (Oh)
Can't you hear what I'm trying to say
(Better than that)
Better than that
Stronger than that
(You're worth much more)
You're better than that
And you can turn back
(What's tried is torn)
Better than that
Stronger than that
(You're worth much more)
I'm telling you it's killing you
It's drowning you it's spilling you over
(What's tried is torn)
I thought you knew how
To chase away the demons of blind trust
I thought you knew now
It's all about temptation changed by choice
You know you're crazy
You're hanging on to reasons turned to rust
Your eyes are hazy
You've gone and lost the velvet in your voice
Can't you see that you're slipping away (Oh)
Can't you hear what I'm trying to say
(Better than that)
Better than that
Stronger than that
(You're worth much more)
You're better than that
And you can turn back
(What's tried is torn)
Better than that
Stronger than that
(You're worth much more)
I'm telling you its killing you
It's drowning you it's spilling you over
(What's tried is torn)
I told you once I told you twice
I told you baby
Now there's nothing more to say
I'm missing the girl I knew
While I'm kissing the broken you
And can't you see you'll be
So don't back face up to the facts
And you can turn back -
You're better than that
Better than that stronger than that
Wiser than that bigger than that
You're better than the devil in you
Tellin you how pulling you down
Spilling you out- but it's up to you
Better than that
Stronger than that
You're better than that
And you can turn back
Better than that
Stronger than that
(You're worth much more)
I'm telling you its killing you
It's drowning you it's spilling you over
(What's tried is torn)
END
