Lyrics Ben Platt – Better

I don’t know if you’re listening or if you wanted to hear from me
I don’t feel like you’re supposed to when somebody sets you free
I’m not good at pretending that I’m happy to be alone
Part of me is a question, can’t answer it on my own

I don’t wanna come crawling, crawling
But I catch myself falling, falling
I could try to stop calling, calling just to show myself
Did you keep my sweater, sweater?
Did you read my letter, letter?
Do you know me better, better than I know myself?
Do you know me better, better than I know myself?

I don’t feel like we’re done here
You got a lock on the things I want
I’m a lost, lonely one here who’s addicted to holding on
I don’t have you to kiss now and I’m putting myself to sleep
But it’s me that I miss now, there’s a me that I didn’t keep

I don’t wanna come crawling, crawling
But I catch myself falling, falling
I could try to stop calling, calling just to show myself
Did you keep my sweater, sweater?
Did you read my letter, letter?
Do you know me better, better than I know myself?
Do you know me better, better than I know myself?
Than I know myself?

‘Cause I lost part of me when I lost all of you, now I’m lost

I don’t wanna come crawling, crawling
But I catch myself falling, falling
I could try to stop calling, calling just to show myself
Did you keep my sweater, sweater?

I don’t wanna wait any longer for the feeling of getting stronger
Maybe that’s why I wrote a song for you
‘Cause you know me better, better
Than I know myself
