On display, an open heart for the world to see 
By the way, you fill me with your uncertainty 
Now I can’t think or try to speak anymore 
Only time, will tell if you’ll be the first to stay 
The fault is mine, for letting hope get me all the same 
Now I can’t sleep for fear of what I could see 

And I know it’s wrong 
To let you walk into my heart, into my home 
But maybe I’m sick and I’m tired 
Of feeling alone, if you’re not my own 
At least I can say, as long as you stay 
You give me better days. 

pearl inside a shell 
She takes your attention like nothing else 
And how am I supposed to feel? 
Like I’m made of glass and I’m hardly real 

And I know it’s wrong 
To let you walk into my heart, into my home 
But maybe I’m sick and I’m tired 
Of feeling alone, if you’re not my own 
At least I can say, as long as you stay 
You give me better days 
Better days 

I should’ve seen it all the same 
Every look upon your face 

I guess I was wrong 
To let you walk into my heart, into my home 
But maybe I’m sick and I’m tired 
Of feeling alone, and you’re not my own 
So all I can say is you’ve chosen her instead 
And there’ve been better days 

There’ve been better days
