Lyrics
Better By Now by Joe Carolus
V1
There?s definitely something wrong here
It?s clear to me I don?t belong here
Talk down to me like a dog and pretend we?re even
I think I should be leaving
Chorus 1
You should know me better by now! 2x
V2
Locked doors conceal angry voices
Raise your glass you?ve made your choices
Gotta be something out there more than this
Refuse to go through my life being pissed
Chorus 2
You should know me better by now! 2x
Bridge
Memories flood my head
So many things left unsaid
I?ve been mislead
Believed the lies I was fed
V3
We know where this is headed
Gonna do our best to not regret it
Somewhere in this mess gotta get to forgiving
Gonna do more than survive gonna do some living
Chorus 3
We should know better by now
We should know better by now
And walk away enlightened somehow
We should know better by now
