  • You probably think that you are better now, better now
    You only say that 'cause I'm not around, not around
    You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
    Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
    You know I say that I am better now, better now
    I only say that 'cause you're not around, not around
    You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
    Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything, oh whoa

    I did not believe that it would end, no
    Everything came second to the Benzo
    You're not even speaking to my friends, no
    You knew all my uncles and my aunts though
    Twenty candles, blow 'em out and open your eyes
    We were looking forward to the rest of our lives
    Used to keep my picture posted by your bedside
    Now it's in your dresser with the socks you don't like
    And I'm rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin'
    With my brothers like it's Jonas, Jonas
    Drinkin' Henney and I'm tryna forget
    But I can't get this shit outta my head

    You probably think that you are better now, better now
    You only say that 'cause I'm not around, not around
    You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
    Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
    You know I say that I am better now, better now
    I only say that 'cause you're not around, not around
    You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
    Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything, oh whoa

    I seen you with your other dude
    He seemed like he was pretty cool
    I was so broken over you
    Life, it goes on, what can you do?
    I just wonder what it's gonna take (what's it gonna take?)
    Another foreign or a bigger chain (bigger chain)
    Because no matter how my life has changed (matter how my life has)
    I keep on looking back on better days

    You probably think that you are better now, better now
    You only say that 'cause I'm not around, not around
    You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
    Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
    You know I say that I am better now, better now
    I only say that 'cause you're not around, not around
    You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
    Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything, oh whoa

    I promise
    I swear to you, I'll be okay
    You're only the love of my life (love of my life)

    You probably think that you are better now, better now
    You only say that 'cause I'm not around, not around
    You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
    Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
    You know I say that I am better now, better now
    I only say that 'cause you're not around, not around
    You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
    Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything, oh whoa Writer/s: Adam King Feeney, Austin Richard Post, Carl Austin Rosen, Kaan Gunesberk, Louis Russell Bell, William Thomas Walsh
