And the windows glow with the hearts they've known Why is my heart never mine? I've been better, when the sky was red And a face like yours couldn't make me scared I've been better, with the things I've said When I took the lead instead of being led [X2] I've been better, when the sky was red And a face like yours couldn't make me scared I've been better, with the things I've said When I took the lead instead of being led [X2] I been better, been better, oh oh oh Been better, I been better, oh oh oh I been better, I been better, oh oh oh Been better, been better, oh oh oh
