Better Than That

Remember when Amelia won

For the prettiest one in the classroom?

I rolled my eyes

Talked shit about her in the bathroom

'Cause I was just jealous, I'd take it back

I was raised better than that

Seventeen, he was older than me

In LA sunshine

An empty room, the second floor, it was the first time

It was good enough, but it wasn't love

Had to be better than that

I hear that you can't trade

Those demons in your past

That most things you can't change

Oh, time don't roll like that

So I could kick myself, go through hell

And try to make it back

Or I could just be better than that

Two stories in one house and I picked sides

How could they go and change three little lives?

I held onto that, so I held back

Damn, I could've loved them better than that

I hear that you can't trade

Those demons in your past

That most things you can't change

Oh, time don't roll like that

So I could kick myself, go through hell

And try to make it back

Or I could just be better than that

I can't believe that we were ever just friends

'Cause now I drink morning coffee in your bed

Come to think, you're everything

I never thought I'd have

Love doesn't get better than that

I hear that you can't trade

Those demons in your past

That most things you can't change

'Cause time don't roll like that

So I could kick myself, go through hell

And try to make it back

Or I could just be better than that
