I'm mended to my prime, heavy on my eyelids
Too likeable, too likeable
Steady all my life
Making any mindset shifts so probable
Yet, you try to step, but you step awkward
You take a breath, but you're bent outward
We'll make a friend, but we'll lose a couple
Let's make pretend that we're going backwards
It's better like that
♪
It's better like that
♪
It's better like that
♪
I hate to say goodbyes
But it's the only time I get to talk to you, it's true
I could let it slide
Corner of my pupil's perspective, neglected
Yet, you try to step, but you step awkward
You take a breath, but you're bent outward
We'll make a friend, but we'll lose a couple
Let's make pretend that we're going backwards
It's better like that
It's better like that
It's better like, better like, better like
Better like, oooooh
Better like, oooooh
Better like, oooooh
Better like, oooooh
Better like, oooooh (better like)
Better like, oooooh
Better like, oooooh (better like)
Better like, oooooh
