I've been better, baby
Since the first time you arrived
It's been lonesome lately
It's so quiet here around

By far the coldest place
I've ever laid down to rest
But the dirt welcomes me
Heavy on my chest

I've never really thought of how the time
Flows unwillingly
But ever since you put me in the ground
I long for you to join me

I've been better, babe
Wish you never saw me through
How can I unsee
What I got myself into

Now the words don't come easily
For the air is getting thin
I really should close my eyes
And wither in my skin

Oh, I've never really thought of how the time
Flows unwillingly
But ever since you put me in the ground
I long for you to join me

Oh, I know that you were waiting for a crime
Hoping one from me
I can't deny I like the way you sound
So weep now, so weep now, oh

I've been better, baby
Since the first time you arrived
