Better Half

[Verse 1]

Well, I see him coming

We hold our rocks; we are ready

The things we'll do to him

They aren't fit for anyone

Hey, this is serious business

I'm gonna hate myself

Still, I just can't wait to begin

[Verse 2]

The monster inside me

He can't be talked out of anything

He's got an appetite

Oh no, he's hungry now

I just gotta restrain him

The seam inside me grows

Kiss your better half goodbye

[Chorus]

And all those things you trusted in (come and gone)

The man that you pride yourself on (come and gone)

All the control you think you hold (come and gone)

Anything that can go wrong

Will find itself come and gone

[Verse 3]

His body lies broken

Well, hey, some harsh words were spoken

And I feel terrible

It just got away

Had to make him pay

For the hole in my heart

It's been my fault from the start

[Chorus]

And all those things you trusted in (come and gone)

The man that you pride yourself on (come and gone)

All the control you think you hold (come and gone)

Anything that can go wrong

Will find itself come and gone

[Verse 4]

The monster inside me

He can't be talked out of anything

He's got an appetite

Oh no, he's hungry now

I just gotta restrain him

The seam inside me grows

Kiss your better half goodbye

[Chorus]

And if you think it all makes sense

Can you tell the difference

Between a quarter and twenty-five cents?

Anything that can go wrong

Will find itself come and gone
