another new song

I wrote another song today. As usual, I had written the chords down a week or two ago but forgot what the melody was and I couldn't remember what the original plan for the lyrics had been, but something nice came out of it nonetheless. It's called "Better", it's in 4/4 and it's a little more angsty than the other songs (angsty rather than sad, I guess). Here are the lyrics:

Push you away

Pull you back

Reach out my hand

Take it back

Because suddenly,

Everything that made me smile makes me cry

And suddenly,

I want to go but I can't say goodbye

I ask you the questions

And seek all my answers

But shut up

Just shut up

I tell you I hate you

But that I still love you

Just shut up

Shut up

As if everything you say right now could make it better, better better

As if everything you say right could make it all better, better, better

You make me cry

But I won't hang up the phone

You say goodbye

That I need to be alone

Suddenly

I'm not fighting you, I'm fighting me

Don't you know

Being alone's not so bad as being lonely

I ask you to speak

And you say something sweet

But shut up

Just shut up

I tell you I hate you

But that I still love you

Just shut up

Shut up

As if anything you say right now could make it better, better, better

As if anything you say right now could make it all better, better, better

Watching everything change

Colors fading to gray

What could you have to say

To make it better

I tell you I hate you

But that I still love you

Just shut up

Shut up

As if anything you say right now could make it better, better, better

As if anything you say right now could make it all better, better, better

Better, better, better, better

Better, better, better, better
