#better than this
Never wish them pain, because you’re better than that.
Better Than This
The strike of a match
Meets the dying flame
She crumbles to ash
And calls out her name
But stopped not is fate
By the match being struck
As time does not wait
For a stroke of pure luck
She’s told nothing changes
That you can’t fix the past
But she’s better than this
And she won’t let them last
…
Her eyes never truly open
And she never truly sees
How much has been broken
In her longing for peace
The flame would be killed
As she opened her eyes
To see past the instilled
To see through the disguise
She’s told not to take risks
That this is her fate
That she’s better than this
She’s knows better than hate
…
Two girls finally realize
Connected by blood
They open their eyes
And prepare for the flood
One spoke but didn’t know
One knew but didn’t speak
But the truth now could show
When the sun hit its peak
So now the clock ticks
And the sun turns to black
They’re better than this
And now they’re fighting back
