Better Now Lyrics by Mandala

Basement Flower Bouquet

2022

Unsure why I'm feeling so bad, 'cause
I don't know if I ever had the means to let myself speak free
I'm roaming in the open road

Unsure if there's a cure for the madness
Last year I was a cure for your sadness
Will I ever have the means?

To say I'm better now
Now that you're not around
I wanna be someone that you sing about
I'm better now
Just open your heart strings
You're pulling on me backwards
Better now
Now that you're not around
I wanna be someone that you care about
I'm better now
Just open your heart strings
You're pulling on me backwards

I'm unsure why I'm feeling so bad, 'cause
I don't know if I ever had the means, yeah
To let myself speak free
You're living in my achy bones

Feeling stuck between a rock and a hard place
Do you feel it in my heart rate?
'Cause it shows, when the feeling starts to go

To say I'm better now
Now that you're not around
I wanna be someone that you sing about
I'm better now
Just open your heart strings
You're pulling on me backwards
Better now
Now that you're not around
I wanna be someone that you care about
I'm better now
Just open your heart strings
You're pulling on me backwards

Oh, auburn har, my babydoll
You led me blind, you let me down
But I know, you're not here now

And I answer the door from time to time
And I wish it was you
But I come to find
Oh no (oh no, oh no)
But you're not there
Don't wait up!
I've been feeling real lonely, lately

They say I'm better now
Now that you're not around
I wanna be someone that you sing about
I'm better now
Just open your heart strings
You're pulling on me backwards
Better now
Now that you're not around
I wanna be someone that you care about
I'm better now
Just open your heart strings
You're pulling on me backwards
