Lyrics

Better to Be

Are you ready to repeat?
Taking me down in my delay
Trust to stumble through my day
I'll wait for time to blow me east
I am breaking in the sound
Mixed up when you are not around

Leaves me buried in a way
Never again to speak or say

Better to be
Better to be
Better to be
Better to be

Are you ready to release?
Eyes on the storm
You got my back
In position on the track
You are the key to enter me
I am moving into light
Better with you within my sight

Leaves me buried in a way
Never again to speak or say

Better to be
Better to be
Better to be
Better to be
