Margo Price
Better Than Nothin’
[Verse 1]
Well, I'm leavin' in the mornin' by the pink and the blue
Rubbin' my eyes 'til a picture comes through
Of the great evacuation on all of the screens
But it's better than nothin', at least
[Verse 2]
Well, the scholars are ramblin' and the searchers are lost
They hung all their sins on the wrong kind of cross
The highway's abandoned, the brick man's deceased
But it's better than nothin', at least
[Verse 3]
I'm revvin' my engine, I laid my own tracks
But the farther you drive, wеll, it's hard to get back
You can't be cured without sicknеss, blessed by the priest
But it's better than nothin', at least
[Interlude]
[Verse 4]
Well, I'm out on the fringes, but I guess it's my fault
The wheels of my sanity have come to a halt
Is it better to go crazy, forsake the masterpiece?
Well, it's better than nothin', at least
[Verse 5]
The saviors and the sinners and the mystics won't talk
They shoved all their secrets in a bulletproof box
Sometimes, being human feels like a disease
But it's better than nothin', at least
[Outro]
Sometimes, being human feels like a disease
But it's better than nothin', at least
