Lyric Better Than That

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,
Now I feel you
Sinking in the quicksand of your lies -

Can t you see that you re slipping away?
Can t you hear what I m trying to say?
(You re better than that…)

[CHORUS]
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 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,
But girl you re crazy -
You re hanging onto reasons
Turned to rust,
You re eyes are hazy,
You ve gone and lost the velvet
In your voice -

Can t you see that you re slipping away?
Can t you hear what I m trying to say?
(You re better than that…)

[Chorus]

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 kissing the broken you,
But it s not up to me...

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 ??- but it s up to you
