[Intro]

[dialogue]
I know better.

Lord, I know better.
I do.

That’s the problem.

[Verse 1]
I sit on the couch arm, not the seat
Half in the room, half ready to leave
Your phone lights up with her name again
And I look away, and let it slide

You laugh like nothing has to change
I nod like I know how this works
I keep my hands where they can behave
And swallow down the sharper words

[Chorus]
I know better, I know better
But I called this friendship to keep it together
I know better, I know better
This is all I get, and I should know better

[Verse 2]
Her picture’s still there when you turn it down
You say her name like ordinary sound
I ask about work, you answer too kind
And I hate how easy I fall in line

You tell that story I’ve heard before
I laugh when I should be getting gone
I didn’t want this, but I still choose more
Every time, every time

[Chorus]
I know better, I know better
But I called this friendship to keep it all together
I know better, I know better
This is all I get, and I should know better

[Bridge]
You're a nice guy, and that makes it worse
You keep your promises, I sort mine first
I can stand beside you and never ask when
But staying close is not the same as being friends

[Final Chorus]
I know better, dammit, I know better
But I called this friendship just to keep it together
I know better, oh, I should know better
This is all I get, and I should know better

I know better, dammit I do know better
But it’s so much worse to disappear altogether.
I know better, I know better
I know better.

Lord, I know better.
I do.

That’s
