When I Can’t Do Better

[Verse 1]

Don't hold your love over my head

Please don't use it against me

Don't be that way tonight

Don't be that way tonight

Don't touch me with self-righteous hands

Promise you won't judge me

Don't walk away tonight

[Chorus]

Embrace me

Save me from myself

Don't you hate me

When I can't do better

Feel me

Heal me if you dare

It would kill me

To lose you forever, mm

[Post-Chorus]

When it gets dark and it just don't come easy

'Cause it's too hard and we're too far gone

Stay with me now, oh

Pray for mе now

When I mean good

But the strеngth just ain't there to do good

Tell me we good

Talk to me now, when I can't do better

[Verse 2]

If I give you power to carry me

Don't you use that power just to bury me

It's been a long night

Fuck it, it's been a long life, mm

But the truth is, what I do with it is my biz 'til I'm through with it

And it's my bed so I lay in it 'cause I'm cool with it

[Chorus]

So embrace me

Save me from myself

Don't you hate me

When I can't do better

Feel me

Heal me if you dare

It would kill me

To lose you forever, mm

And I need you to know

[Post-Chorus]

When it gets dark and it just don't come easy

'Cause it's too hard and we're too far gone

Stay with me now, oh-oh (With me now)

Pray for me now

When I mean good

But the strength just ain't there to be good

Tell me, we good?

Talk to me now, when I can't do better

[Outro]

When I can't do better

Ooh, baby, love me through it

We can do it, we can get through it

Oh, hey, hey, yeah

So embrace me, baby

Hold me, baby

When I can't do better

Ooh

Ooh-ooh
