​better Lyrics by MICO

the afterparty EP

2023

[Verse 1]
You gotta settle down
Feel your breathing start to shake up
Just gotta hear me out
No, it doesn't have to be your fault, oh

[Pre-Chorus 1]
You try to tell me I'm the broken one
When you're the only one
Feeling like you're not enough
I know my issues feel like they're your exit door
They make you insecure
But you're not what they're looking for

[Chorus]
So baby, shut up
Don't wanna talk about it, don't wanna let it out
I know it's too much to handle, know you just want it to stop
Don't wanna complicate it, don't wanna let you down
You think I'm better
So I'll just pretend I'm bettеr now

[Post-Chorus]
(You think I'm better, so I)
(I say I'm bettеr now)
(You think I'm better, so I)
(I say I'm better now)

[Verse 2]
You gotta settle down
No, your fears, they never make sense
It's hard to stay around
If the honesty is poisonous, oh

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You try to tell me I'm the broken one
When you're the only one
Feeling like you're not enough
You're turning all my issues into exit doors
Can't fix how insecure you get when I can't give you more

[Chorus]
So baby, shut up
Don't wanna talk about it, don't wanna let it out
I know it's too much to handle, know you just want it to stop
Don't wanna complicate it, don't wanna let you down
You think I'm better
So I'll just pretend I'm better now

[Post-Chorus]
(You think I'm better, so I)
(I say I'm better now)
(You think I'm better, so I)
(I say I'm better now)

[Bridge]
You say we're problematic
You say we're out of time
It's getting harder and harder to say what's on my mind
You say you trust me, baby
Well, can you trust me when I say I'm fine?

[Chorus]
So baby, shut up
Don't wanna talk about it, don't wanna let it out
I know it's too much to handle, know you just want it to stop
Don't wanna complicate it, don't wanna let you down
You think I'm better
So I'll just pretend I'm better now

[Post-Chorus]
(You think I'm better, so I)
(I say I'm better now)
(You think I'm better, so I)
(I say I'm better now)

[Outro]
Don't wanna talk about it, don't wanna let it out
I know it's too much to handle, know you just want it to stop
Don't wanna complicate it, don't wanna let you down
You think I'm better
So I'll just pretend I'm better now
