[Verse 1]
I'm tryna find the cure
To why I always search for more
Oh, you're gonna leave a scar (Break my heart)
Feels like we'll tear apart
[Pre-Chorus]
And in my mind, it's set-in-stone
And I don't know what's wrong
And I know I'm alone and I, I, I
[Chorus]
I, I'm better left behind
It's better not to try
Better to deny-y-y-y-y
This feeling that I hide
It's better not to try
And I don't know why-y-y-y
[Verse 2]
And far away, I go
Sometimes I feel like I'm not sure
'Cause when I leave a chance
We're right back to the start
[Pre-Chorus]
And in my mind, it's set-in-stone
And I don't know what's wrong
And I know I'm all alone and I, I, I
Deep down, I know I'm on my own
I know I don't belong, and
Don't hit up my phone 'cause I, I, I
[Chorus]
I, I'm better left behind
It's better not to try
Better to deny-y-y-y-y
This feeling that I hide
It's better not to try
And I don't know why-y-y
[Bridge]
I'll leave too soon
(Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah)
I'll leave too soon, I'll leave it
I'll leave too soon
(Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah)
I'll leave too soon, I'll leave it
[Outro]
I'm tryna find the cure
To why I always search for more
Oh, you're gonna leave a scar
Feels like we'll tear apart

This unconscious cycle of self-sabotage is what Better is all about. It’s about always expecting the worst in others as well as yourself. It’s about getting into relationships and expecting it all to fall apart before it’s even begun. It’s about thinking that you’re ‘better left behind.’
