You could find a way to ease my passion
  You listen to the blood flow in my veins
  You hear the teaching of the wind
  Tell her why I'm alive within
  I can't find the words
  My mind is dead
  It's better by you better than me
  
  Guess you'll have to tell her how I tried
  To speak up thoughts I've held so inside
  Tell her now I got to go
  Out in the streets and down the shore
  Tell her the world's not much living for
  It's better by you better than me
  
  Everybody
  Everybody knows
  Everybody
  Everybody knows
  Better by you better than me
  
  You can tell what I want it to be
  You can say what I only can see
  It's better by you better than me
  
  Guess I'll have to change my way of living
  Don't wanna really know the way I feel
  Guess I'll learn to fight and kill
  Tell her not to wait until
  They'll find my blood upon her windowsill
  It's better by you better than me
  
  Everybody
  Everybody knows
  Everybody
  Everybody knows
  Better by you better than me
  
  You can say what I only can see
  You can tell what I want it to be
  
  It's better by you better than me
  
  Better by you better than me
  
  You can tell what I want it to be
  You can say way all they can see
  
  Better by you better than me
