[English]

You're better than ever.

Leaving me as good.

I'll just join in.

Watching all of your dreams come true.

Great. Didn't even say to my face.

Didn't even ask if I was okay.

Somehow you feel bad.

You smile only if it's worth your while.

Guess I'm nobody that crowd anymore.

I used to be so sure. It catches up and

comes back around.

Come find you

cuz you're never

Dreams

great broke me break

away everywhere I go see your face.

You take the car and I'll walk the high.

You walk the road and I walk myself.

It's like I'm stuck in this hell waiting

until

it catches up and comes back around.

Heat. Heat.

Heat. Heat.

Heat.

Heat.

Better than ever.

I barely remember you.

Looking good in my sweater.

Watching all of my dreams come true.
