Better Way Out - Ras Charmer

Oh, why would you try to be so unkind? Your laughter echoes in my head Leave it alone, leave it alone, leave it alone I'm reminded Don't forget about the dead If I could go walking with you by my side Would you be so unkind, so unkind? You could do all the talking, just speak your mind Free your mind Well you found you had a voice And the world stopped to listen But you had nothing good to say Now you're alone, digging for bones, buried in your phone for hours What a waste of a day If I could go walking with you by my side Would you be so unkind, so unkind? You could do all the talking, just speak your mind Free your mind I hope you find a better way I hope you find I hope you find a better way To be kinder

I'm not alone, I really believe You never go, You never leave Here and now, You always stay And "I love you" could not be said a better way Chorus It's everything You've promised There's no greater love than this From prophets until today A man laying down His life for His friends Your sacrifice has spoken, You gave everything And "I love you" could not be said A better way I am forgiven, I clearly see It's why You came to do all you did for me Trading earth with heaven, You took my place "I love you" could not be said A better way Chorus It's everything You've promised There's no greater love than this From prophets until today A man laying down His life for His friends Your sacrifice has spoken, You gave everything And "I love you" could not be said A better way Because You redeem, I know what's to come Everything I could lose here, You've already won So You have my surrender, with passion obey "I love you" could not be said A better way

Will we ever talk again the way we used to? Is it time to have our last words tattooed? Does your mom still ask if I'm doing alright? Do the songs we used to sing keep you up at night? The ones that go "ooooh" Not not missing you I'll keep justifying the reasons I let you go And the version of myself I pretend to know Until another life where I decide to stay It's better this way Guess we were meant to be, just not to last And to your next girl, I'll be just a part of your past Still, will you think of me and all the good? 'Cuz I'll play our song when I pass your neighborhood All you'll hear is "ooooh" Tired of missing you I'll keep justifying the reasons we're both better off And I'll tell my friends that our spark just happened to get lost And when my sister asks how you're doing again these days It's better this way A shout for help Turned into a whisper What I'd do to hear you say "I still miss her" I'll continue to be misunderstood But if I could go back, I would I know we'll never talk again the way we used to Still I want to waste some ink on a tattoo

When you're a charmer The apples fall And you're quite the little collector You got 'em all When you're a charmer People respond They can't see the hidden agenda You got going on But when you're weak it's a Holy Grail You're two for one; it's a fire sale And that's a wall that you cannot scale So you're forced to burrow under When you're a charmer The world applauds They don't know that secretly charmers Feel like they're frauds When you're a charmer You hate yourself A victim of sexual-hypnosis Like everyone else And when your thinking goes black and white And you're all hunger and appetite This is a battle you cannot fight Where you only can surrender No, you only can surrender No, you only can surrender No, you only can surrender
