Better
Loveless Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is unbelievable
I - I - I can’t see at all
What I’m trying to prove
Am I destined to lose it all
I - I - I can see the fall
Is there nothing left to choose
Is this all that I can do
I think I hate the pressure
But I measure it to know that it’s real
I know I’ve got to let this go
I’m not feeling any better
My temperature is rising and I fear
Maybe I should let this go

This isn’t how it’s s’pposed to go
You - you - you tried to take it all
But there’s nothing left of me
Oh, oh where the hell did we go
All that I know is we burned, didn’t glow

I think I hate the pressure
But I measure it to know that it’s real
I know I’ve got to let this go
I’m not feeling any better
My temperature is rising and I fear
Maybe I should let this go

I tried to walk away
I know that I can’t stay
Here in this mess that I made
I wish that I could say
The words I thought you needed
You needed to hear

I think I hate the pressure
It’s time for me to let this go
It’s time for me to let this

I think I hate the pressure
But I measure it to know that it’s real
I know I’ve got to let this go
I’m not feeling any better
My temperature is rising and I fear
Maybe I should let this go




I think I hate pressure but I measure it to know
Maybe I should let this go
