Better Things - Lyrics and Music © 2020 K.M.Brierley & A.T.Peddie

You look at me, I can see behind your smile, you don't believe
That I have moved on and don't need you still around my life's complete
Our love has died, so your opinion doesn't qualify, to judge my happiness
So I'll just leave your heart abandoned in the street

And you can't bring me down, and you can't bring me down
And you can't bring me down ‘cos I've got better things around

You took me in, threw my self confidence straight in the bin
Put out my sparkle, but the light is coming back from deep within
The mirror shines so bright, and my reflection makes me realise I was right
To stand my ground and say that I am comfortable and happy in my skin

And you won't bring me down, and you won't bring me down
And you won't bring me down, ‘cos I've got better things around
Rap:
Yeah well I'm rolling on in a blank state of mind
Head is in the shed and my eyes are staring blind
I couldn't take the lies and I couldn't take the joke
I would've tried to run but I thought I couldn't cope
I lie awake dreaming I'm the owner of the crown
Gotta get back up ‘cos your lovin' drags me down
Your heart is on the street and I've kicked it in the gutter
It's time for moving on so I'm bagging up your clutter

Tomorrow when it comes (tomorrow when it comes)
Tomorrow will be bright (tomorrow will be bright)
‘cos the sun will dance across the sky oh yeah
There'll be no more cloudy days, as I'll be sending all your baggage on its way
So let's just call it quits and make this time our last, I've gotta say goodbye

And you can't bring me down, and you can't bring me down
And you can't bring me down ‘cos I've got better things around

And you won't bring me down, and you won't bring me down
And you won't bring me down, ‘cos I've got better things around

And you can't bring me down, and you can't bring me down
And you can't bring me down, ‘cos I've got better things around
