“Never Been Better” is a collaboration between Vancouver producer Marcus James and vocalist Amy Kirkpatrick. The song is about the fragile sense of pride that comes out when someone hurts you. putting on a mask to the rest of the world, and pretending to be be okay.
[Verse 1]:
I've never been better
Does that sound fake?
I saw her in your sweater
Is that just a phase?
You said you're heading east now
Thought you'd never leave LA
And I beg you release me now
God you're good at pain
And when I turn the lights down
I don't have the right now
To feel all this pain
Couldn't look you in the eyes now
Tell you I'm alright now
Still I feel the same
[Climb]:
I've never been better
Never been better
Never been better
Never been here before
I've never been better
Never been better
Never been better
I couldn't want you more
[Drop]
[Verse 2]:
I went into the woods with you
Kept the feelings away
Small talk and whisky
So good to see the day
I said I'm heading east now
But I'll be back in LA
In the back of my mind it was
The last time I would see your face
And when I turn the lights down
I don't have the right now
To feel all this pain
Couldn't look you in the eyes now
Tell you I'm alright now
Still I feel the same
[Climb]:
I've never been better
Never been better
Never been better
Never been here before
I've never been better
Never been better
Never been better
I couldn't want you more
