Better Than Me


Gotta catch yourself up to speed
Do you even know who I am?
Because I never thought that you'd leave.
We aren't always who we seem.
Maybe I'm dangerous.
Maybe I'm what you need.
We could be perfect.
And I could be your everything.
Take a look at her...
Tell me what do you see...
What makes her different?
What makes her better than me?
You were my one and only.
You didn't need the trophy.
I wore my heart on my sleeve.
For you to get up and leave.
Because she was different.
She's so much better than me.
