Better Not Lyrics

Trying to keep my head straight
Don't wanna mess with my life
I better stand and face it
This haze is digging deeper into the night
I'm waiting for the morning
I'm waiting for the sun to burn through my skin
And ease my troubled mind - a peace so hard to find
People are cruel - People will stare
People won't love you for the words you say..

I'm turning off my headlights
The wave is too revealing
It keeps on crushing me - preserves my suffering

I better not erase this
I better not forget who I wanted to be
I better not evade this
Cos all I got to share is twisting on the inside of me
Look at him go
A man on the path to perdition
The shimmering light of ambition
Look at him and remember not to judge
But yourself

Waiting on the headlines
The edge is more appealing
The fruit will rot inside - a truth you cannot hide
I better not erase this
I better not forget who I wanted to be
I better not evade this
Cos all I got to share is twisting on the inside of me

People are cruel - People will stare
People won't love you
They give you away
They give you away
