How could you say it was love - without shedding a tear?
How could you turn the light off – without having me near
I've always thought you were strong - but now I know you were cold
I have been fooled for too long - so now I'm back on the road
There's no return – it's alright
I know I can't turn back time
Push all the big scenes aside
You'll see I'm better than you
Your poor, perfect life
Seems nothing more than a lie
Cheated so many times
See I was better than you
Better than you - alright
I'm always better than you
Better than you – alright
So tell me
What kind of role did you play –did you get enough?
What kind of illusion is life – without the feeling of love
I've always thought you were cool - but now I see you're a clown
I might have been a fool – but I'm the one who knows now
There's no return – it's alright
I know I can't turn back time
Push all the big scenes aside
You'll see I'm better than you
Your poor, perfect life
Seems nothing more than a lie
Cheated so many times
See I was better than you
Better than you - alright
I'm always better than you
Better than you – alright
So this turned out to be the best thing
The best thing I've ever said
You can't figure it out on your own that's
Why I'm telling you instead
There's no return – it's alright
I know I can't turn back time
Push all the big scenes aside
You'll see I'm better than you
Your poor, perfect life
Seems nothing more than a lie
Cheated so many times
See I was better than you
I was better than you
I was better than you
I was better than you
See I was better than you
I was better than you
I was better than you
I was better than you
See I was better than you
Better than you - alright
I'm always better than you
Better than you – alright
