better Lyrics

Maybe I'm not used to losing

I always make it about me, I know

And I'm no stranger to delusion

I think I need someone to call me out

'Cause I took the longer exit

So I could play that song again before I got home

Sat on my floor

Watched the sun go down on all of it

I looked inside myself

Had nothing left to cry about

And everyone's like, "time will smooth things over"

But maybe I don't wanna get over it

Because I don't wanna forget

I'm replaying every detail to make it last

So I think I'll stay here a while

I'll just sit inside the hurt

It's gotta get worse

It's gotta get worse

It's gotta get worse

Before it gets better

Even if it's painful

Well, at least I'm feeling something

Give me the bitterness, I'm grateful

For any space that you still take up

And I know that sounds insane

But I've never been too good at games

I blinked and then I lost before it started

Someone tell me how to play

I looked inside myself

Had nothing left to cry about

My therapist said, "time will smooth things over"

But maybe I don't wanna get over it

Because I don't wanna forget

I'm replaying every detail to make it last

So I think I'll stay here a while

I'll just sit inside the hurt (I'll just stay here)

It's gotta get worse

It's gotta get worse

It's gotta get worse

Before it gets better

So give me one good reason

Why I shouldn't get my hopes up

'Cause I'm okay to keep daydreaming

Don't really wanna pull the curtain back

'Cause I don't wanna get over it (over)

Because I don't wanna forget (I don't wanna)

I'm replaying every detail to make it last (oh no)

So I think I'll stay here a while (I'll stay)

I'll sit inside the hurt (right here)

It's gonna get worse

It's gotta get worse (I'll get)

It's gotta get worse

Before it gets better (better)
