IÔÇÖm a bitter pill on your tongue, but I tell you
IÔÇÖm better than nothing at all
I go down as smooth as a nail or a memory
Drowning in alcohol
YouÔÇÖre afraid of the outside
YouÔÇÖre afraid of the outside creeping in
You donÔÇÖt really want me, but youÔÇÖd better believe
IÔÇÖm the ghost in your closet when you turn the lights out
IÔÇÖm rattling ÔÇÿround through your bones
I know all your secret designs and amusements
IÔÇÖm listening on the phone
YouÔÇÖre afraid of the outside
YouÔÇÖre afraid of the outside creeping in
You donÔÇÖt really want me, but youÔÇÖd better believe
IÔÇÖm better than nothing at all
IÔÇÖm better than nothing at all
IÔÇÖm the rock at the bottom of where you are falling
And when we kiss youÔÇÖll be there
IÔÇÖm the thorn in your side when youÔÇÖre trying to be cool
(But nobody really cares...)
YouÔÇÖre afraid of the outside
YouÔÇÖre afraid of the outside creeping in
You donÔÇÖt really want me, but youÔÇÖd better believe
IÔÇÖm better than nothing at all
IÔÇÖm better than nothing at all
IÔÇÖm better than nothing at all
Does it matter much that IÔÇÖm such a pariah?
YouÔÇÖre tired and bored with yourself
We could be a royal couple of nothings
ÔÇÿCause nothing suits you well
YouÔÇÖre afraid of the outside
YouÔÇÖre afraid of the outside creeping in
You donÔÇÖt really want me, but youÔÇÖd better believe
IÔÇÖm better than nothing at all
IÔÇÖm better than nothing at all
IÔÇÖm better than nothing at all
IÔÇÖm better than nothing at all
