Intro x1 Verse When I couldn't see you for the wall What was that you said? What was that you said, before you called? And when I couldn't catch you for the fall What was that you said? What was that you said? "Nothing hurts this much" But I've seen the way That bodies lie and bodies tend to break And I've been away I've been away too long Too long to be afraid But you know What you know is better Is brighter And you know You know What you know is better Is brighter And this is where we were, when I showed you the dark Inside of me, in spite of me On a bench in the park you said to me: Verse () x6 "This is not you. This is not you.. This is not you…" But I’ve seen the way That bodies lie And bodies tend to break And I've been away I've been away too long… And I don't know a better place But you know What you know is better Is brighter And you know You know What you know is better Is brighter Chorus () x4 And this is where we were, when I showed you the dark Inside of me, in spite of me On a bench in the park And this is where we are In your bed, in my arms Outside of me In spite of 'we' I showed you the dark And you said to me: Verse x4 "You know What you know is better Is brighter" "And you know, you know What you know is better Is brighter" Outro
