"Better Distractions" lyrics

"Better Distractions"

Sit around until I find something better to spend my time, but nothing's appealing
Nothing really lasts that long for me to realize, I'm still alone and you're not with me
I wonder what's inside your mind, but you seem pretty occupied, so I'll leave it alone
If only I could do the same, share your ways, and I'll change the name and make it my own

Will you, will you, will you, will you, will you, will you be with me?
Will you, will you, will you, will you, will you, will you be with me?

I tried to eat, I tried to sleep, but everything seems boring to me, I don't know what to do
Got two friends that I could see, but they got two jobs and a baby, I just want to see you
Depending on our time apart, the better that distractions are, and there isn't a lot
It only took a couple times without you here to realize, but I figured it out

Will you, will you, will you, will you, will you, will you be with me?
Will you, will you, will you, will you, will you, will you be with me?
Will you, will you, will you, will you, will you, will you be with me?
Will you, will you, will you, will you, will you, will you be with me?

"Better Distractions" was premiered on September 16, 2020, accompanied by music video.
"I wrote this song kinda without knowing I was writing it," Faye said in a press release. "It's a kind of free association, just thoughts running straight from my head onto paper untouched. I also think it's best my band has ever sounded on record."
