I Know Better Songtext
von Nowhere Left

Broken trust, I can′t avoid it
I can't be loved, I can′t afford it
'Cause every night's a nightmare I can never sleep
Haunted by your face and what you did to me
You′re heavy on my chest and now I′m barely breathing

You dance in my head with the worst of my regrets
And I count every step 'cause the past won′t let me rest
I'm tired, I′m tired
You know how to run me down
But I know better, I know better
You still fuck me up somehow
I know better, I know better now

Did you break me or did you break my heart?
Every shoulder's getting colder
Is it me or New York? Yeah
Is it worth it to keep pressing my luck?
′Cause I can't sever the ties if they're still tangled in knots


Every night′s a nightmare I can never sleep
Haunted by your face and what you did to me
You′re heavy on my chest and now I'm barely breathin′

You dance in my head with the worst of my regrets
And I count every step 'cause the past won′t let me rest
I'm tired, I′m tired
You know how to run me down
But I know better, I know better
You still fuck me up somehow
I know better, I know better now

Painful memories, I can't cope
Open wounds I can't close
I lose hope, I lose hope
Yeah, on and on it goes
Painful memories, I can′t cope
Open wounds I can′t close
I lose hope, I lose hope

You know how to run me down
But I know better, I know better
You still fuck me up somehow


You dance in my head with the worst of my regrets
And I count every step 'cause the past won′t let me rest
I'm tired, I′m tired
You know how to run me down
But I know better, I know better
You still fuck me up somehow
I know better, I know better now

You know how to run me down
You still fuck me up somehow
But I know better now
(And who the fuck are you talkin' to?)
