[Intro: Telle Smith]
Can one of us be saved?
[Verse 1: Telle Smith]
I can't forgive you but I can't look away
I have to tell myself it's better, better this way
It's killing me
[Pre-Chorus: Telle Smith]
(Don't wait for the light
Just fall asleep, embrace the night)
[Chorus: Telle Smith]
Keep telling myself that I was the victim
You were the one that pulled away
I've got a cold heart
This is the sad part
I don't think I can change
Can one of us be saved?
I feel like I'm better
Better in a grave
[Post-Chorus: Telle Smith]
Better in a grave
Better in a grave
[Verse 2: Noah Sebastian]
You played the cards you know I wanted to see
Behind the curtain always pulling the strings in my head
But now I think it's time to cut the ends
I won't make the same mistake again
[Chorus: Noah Sebastian]
I keep telling myself that I was the victim
You were the one that pulled away
I've got a cold heart
This is the sad part
I don't think I can change
Can one of us be saved?
It feels like I'm better
Feels like I'm better
Better in a grave
[Bridge: Telle Smith]
You got what you deserved
And that was me
You saw me at my worst
You saw the worst in me
Tell me that I'm wrong
Tell me that I'm wrong
I can't forgive you, but I can't look away
I walked through fire, I was born in the flames
[Chorus: Telle Smith, Noah Sebastian]
Keep telling myself that I was the victim
You were the one that pulled away
I've got a cold heart
This is the sad part
I don't think I can change
Can one of us be saved?
I feel like I'm better
Feels like I'm better
Better in a grave
[Outro]
Can one of us be saved?
Better in a grave

The Word Alive vocalist Telle shared in a track-by-track video:
If you listen to the lyrics closely, it has references
from our track “2012,” which we released on our first debut record, Deceiver. So kind of a full-circle moment for the lyrics and the story from that. If you don’t know, that song w...
