Song Lyrics

You’re not better than this:
When you’re thinking you’re that smart
Life’s frozen with a broken heart
You’re so cruel
You’re so beautiful
You’re not better than this!

It’s just better that way:
Go on thinking you’re that cool
No one can send us back to school
There’s just one more stupid thing to do
You’re not better than this

I gently watch you fall
It feels like
Destroying something beautiful
I gently watch you fall
It feels like
Destroying something beautiful

You’re not better than this:
And your life is not a big deal
With insomnia nothing is real
When you’re down it doesn’t matter how you feel
You’re not better than this!

It’s just better that way:
And you’re thinking you’re that smart
You figured out my dead spot
You’re so cruel
You’re so beautiful
You’re not better than this

Do you see it on screen
Do you hear their screams
When the whole city’s drowned
In cold sweat

Greg Darling, Julian Lennon
