Better Than That - Butch Walker, Suzanne Santo

I’m tryin' so hard not to love him too fast

Line up all the horses and race 'round the track

And relax around reality and never look back

Want real hard love that’s better than that

I’m tryin' so hard not to bury myself

Beneath the dirt and the flowers of somebody else

Yeah beauty is blinding and darkness runs deep

Wanna hold on to him, still hold on to me

Cocaine and whiskey ride

They don’t even compare to how love makes me high

So I won’t push my luck

I’ll sober up

I won’t feed off of it till it dies

I’m tryin' so hard to stay right where I am

And I drive my mind in reverse, and speed up ahead

Break down on the road that just leaves me for dead

Want the peace of the present to steer me instead

Cocaine and whiskey ride

They don’t even compare to how love makes me high

So I won’t push my luck

I’ll sober up

I won’t feed off of it till it dies

Now I’ve got a history, I know you do too

Where the hell would we be without what we’ve been through

And I don’t give a damn about the mud on your boots

I just want you

Cocaine and whiskey ride

They don’t even compare to how love makes me high

So I won’t push my luck

I’ll sober up

I won’t feed off of it till it dies

Till it dies
