The Joy Formidable - The Better Me Lyrics

Pushing the shame off my back
Telling the soul walk tall and don't lose track
Tipping it out of my shoes
It's weighing me down, it's weighing me down

Leaving the side of my house
Looking to find a friend, then leave again
Cutting the wires within, so I'll follow you now
where do I begin.

The better me is you
I don't mind
The better me is you
I know why.

Quick they're locking the gates
We were going nowhere anyway
I'm stepping with the sky
but I can't get close
I just circle wide

What you mean to me
I only whisper, whisper to the trees
You make space out of my side
Oh you can only try, you can only try

There's nothing behind us
That says I didn't try

I have to live with me
