BETTER AS A MEMORY

Deep down, you know

We're going under

Deep down, you know

I'd be better as a memory

Turn me loose because I'm fucked up

And only meant to be a deep cut

Didn't mean to drag you down with me

Guess you're meant to lose your crown with me, ah

I burn the candle at both ends

I see the world through a cracked lens

Ain't no pieces left to pick up

Even the fire says, it's given up

Deep down, you know (deep down, you know)

We're going under

Deep down, I know (deep down, I know)

But still I wonder

Why do we feel the need to scream?

When it brings us only pain

All the words we used to say don't

Don't mean a thing

When I keep you on the edge

Just push me from the ledge

'Cause deep down, you know (deep down, you know)

I'd be better as a memory

(Better as a memory)

I set a mood like a crime scene

I fall back to the same routine

I know this life will be the death of me

Can't look away but it's hard to see

Why do we feel the need to scream?

When it brings us only pain

All the words we used to say don't

Don't mean a thing

When I keep you on the edge

Just push me from the ledge

'Cause deep down, you know (deep down, you know)

I'd be better as a memory

Turn me loose because I'm fucked up

And only meant to be a deep cut

Didn't mean to drag you down with me

Guess you're meant to lose your crown with me

Why do we feel the need to scream?

When it brings us only pain

All the words we used to say don't

Don't mean a thing

When I keep you on the edge

Just push me from the ledge

'Cause deep down, you know (deep down, you know)

I'd be better as a memory

Deep down, you know

We're going under

Deep down, I know

But still I wonder

Why I keep you on the edge?

Just push me from the ledge

'Cause deep down, you know (deep down, you know)

I'd be better as a memory
