Better - Makari

I’m still in the pool you left me in

And I thought it’d be cool to be melted down

To be water on the ground

You could walk on or swim through

Here I am at the top again

Dreaming that you let me in

Talk me down, talk me down

Talk me down

We leave our marks on things that will never be ours

The streets are scarred, the trees are carved

With names that glow like

Diamond rings on one knee in a nice restaurant

I’m better now, those dreams are gone

'Cause I thought it’d be you and me

Hovering 'round everything I knew we’d be

If autumn flowers could just hold out 'til spring

And shake off the snowfall, whoa-oh-oh-oh

Here I am at the top again

Desperate for oxygen

Talk me down, talk me down

Here I am at a loss again

Starving for oxytocin

Talk me down, talk me down

We leave our marks on things that will never be ours

The streets are scarred, the trees are carved

With names that glow like

Diamond rings on one knee in a nice restaurant

I’m better now, those dreams are gone

Fading faster in the picture you took of us, just the two of us

There’s no future in this phantom limb I’ve sewn to us

And there’s a little spot where I let you in

Now it’s a vacant lot where your name never washes off

'Cause I thought it’d be you and me

Circling infinity

We leave our marks on things that will never be ours

The streets are scarred, the trees are carved

With names that glow like

Diamond rings on one knee in a nice restaurant

I’m better now, those dreams are gone
