Even Better Yet
[Verse 1]
It's just the nicotine that's coming over me
Or is it anything more than a smoke screen
'Cause I feel like you've been living a lie
You're looking better than, than you ever did
Nothings better than, than you once said
I've been waiting but I've been losing my
Losing my mind
[Chorus]
I've gotta take the car for a long drive
I'm gonna get out, oh, I'll commit myself
I don't know how you do what you do (Do-do-do-do)
I gotta take the plane for a long ride
I'm gonna get out, oh, I'll commit myself
I won't believe a thing that you say
[Verse 2]
And all the cigarettes are getting better yet
I just can't forget all the other shit
I know you're in bed and to me, that's just fine
But you can't sleep, you're laying next to me
Saying everything, saying everything
That you would do if you could just open your eyes
Well, open your eyes
[Chorus]
I've gotta take the car for a long drive
I'm gonna get out, oh, I'll commit myself
I don't know how you do what you do (Do-do-do-do)
I gotta take the plan for a long ride
I'm gonna get out, oh, I'll commit myself
I won't believe a thing that you, a thing that you, a thing that you say
[Bridge]
Oh, you look so, so skin and thin and bones
And, oh, oh, you look so, so, so, so, so...
I know it doesn't end, it just gets better yet
I don't want to wait 'cause I can't think about
What you never did, what you never did
Would you... well, I wouldn't wait
Would you go? Would you stay?
[Chorus]
I've gotta take the car for a long drive
I'm gonna get out and I'll commit myself
I don't know how you, you do what you do, what you do, what you do
I gotta take the plane for a long ride
I'm gonna get out, and I'll commit myself
I won't believe a thing that you say
