Lyrics

Better

My darling, my lover
How I love you, how I missed you
But my solitude loves me better than you

My sweet little charmer
I wanna give you all of my body
But my loneliness fucks me better than you

There was a time I needed you
And I would die for you
I'd give you every heartbeat
What did you give to me?
What did you give to me?
I can't keep holding on
I can't keep holding on and on and on

My darling, my lover
How I love you, how I missed you
But my solitude loves me better than you

My sweet little charmer
I wanna give you all of my body
But my loneliness fucks me better than you

Sensitive, you say I'm too sensitive
Now darling, you're misreading things
I just finally give a shit
About my own heart
About my own life
And I can't keep holding on
I can't keep holding on and on and on

My darling, my lover
How I love you, how I missed you
But my solitude loves me better than you

My sweet little charmer
I wanna give you all of my body
But my loneliness fucks me better than you

I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard

I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard
I wanna go hard, I wanna go hard
