I Know Better

There's a note in my throat When I sing it I choke on the melody There's a burn on my skin I can feel it within like a memory There's a glimmer of hope At the end of my rope I can almost reach But I know, but I know That road isn't meant for me The melody and the memories, they close in And I know it'd be too easy to give in So, Don't play that game Don't play that game I'm not the same I'm not the same I know I've changed Changed And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know That I know better There's a weight to my fate And it hurts when I wake from the reverie There's a heart on my sleeve And it wants me to believe I'm a better me There's a pull from beyond Even though you're long gone like you're watching me Now I know I'm not alone And this road is where I'm meant to be So don't let me stray, we all know how I can be Don't play that game Don't play that game I'm not the same I'm not the same I know I've changed Changed And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I know I know I know I know that the shallow waters will turn deep again I know that the battle gets harder but even then I know that the shadows will turn to turn to colors and when they do I know I've got you So, Don't play that game I'm not the same I'm not the same I know I've changed Changed And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I know I know better
