'CAUSE I HAVE A BETTER STORY TO TELL

I stomped on the benches with muddy shoes

I was wrongly accused of something I was ashamed to do
I was made fun of the way I stayed
So why do you think I will remain like that again?

I cried out to the sky
The day he said goodbye
I stayed there again
But I felt love in the rain.

Cause I have a better story to tell
About how the boys share their drama
About how the world screams in karma
About how I and him were the greatest love to be ever found
About why I, then, never turned around.

They told me to go slow
To move fast, to move through,
The blooded moon,
The shining silver you.
They told me to talk loud,
To talk low in the crowd,
To move on when they stay,
They died the same way.

Cause I have a better story to tell
About how they sow the evil seeds inside you
About how they tear you apart when he is around you
About how I loved them when they screamed his name
About how I always wanted to stay.

Jump jump jump
It's the only time you can
Run run run
Run as far as the rivers follow
Wave wave wave
Till you can.
Till you can,
Cause you'll lose it all,
One day,
So I stay the way,
And tell them how I felt,
Back then,
Back when,
You and I were the same.
And when I had a better story to tell.
