"Better Than This" lyrics

"Better Than This"

I've been thinkin' bout leavin' this world by my own hand
If you've ever been this low you understand
But I ain't tryin' to make my poor little mama cry
She thinks folks go to hell for suicide

I've been sinkin, cause I've been drinkin'
That ol' bottle just ain't doin' shit
Up's the only way to go
If there's one thing I know
It's gotta get better than this

I've been getting' a lil' thicker in the middle and I look like hell
But that's all I put her through so its just as well
When you love somebody but you only cause em' pain
There ain't no thinkin you don't deserve the same

I've been sinkin, so I've been drinkin...
That ol' bottle still ain't doin' shit
Up's the only way to go
And if there's one thing I know
It's gotta get better than this

Yeah, I've been sinkin, so I've been drinkin...
That ole' bottle probably caused this shit
Up's the only way to go
And if there's one damn thing I know
It's gotta get better than this
It's gotta get better than this
Yeah, I've been drinkin'
