Guns N' Roses – Better lyrics

No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better... Better... (oooooouuuu)
No one ever told me when I was alone
They just thought I'd know better... Better...

The hardest part, this troubled heart has ever yet been through now,
Was heal the scars that got their start inside someone like you now,
For had I known or I'd been shown back when how long it'd take me,
To break the charms that brought me harm and all but would erase me.

I never would or thought I could, no matter what you'd pay me,
Replay the part you stole my heart, I should have known you're crazy,
If all I knew was that with you I'd want someone to save me,
It'd be enough, but just my luck, I fell in love and maybe...

All that I wanted was...

Now I know you better,
You know I know better,
Now I know you better!

So bittersweet, this tragedy won't ask for absolution,
This melody inside of me, still searches for solution,
A twist of faith, a change of heart kills my infatuation,
A broken heart provides the spark for my determination.

No one ever told me when I was alone,
They just thought I'd know better, better... (ooouuuuuu)
No one ever told me when I was alone,
They just thought I'd know better, better...

All that I wanted, was...

Now I know you better,
You know, I know better,
Now I know you better!

(Guitar solo)

I never wanted you to be so full of anger (anger),
I never wanted you to be somebody else,
I never wanted you to be someone afraid to know themselves,
I only wanted you to see things for yourself.

All that I wanted, was...

Now I know you better,
Now we all know better!

All that I wanted was...

(Guitar solo)

Na na na na (x4)

If I were you, I'd manage to avoid the invitation,
Of promised love that can't keep up with your adoration,
Just use your head, and in the end you'll find your inspiration,
To choose your steps and won't regret this kind of aggravation.

No one ever told me when I was alone,
They just thought I'd know better... Better...
No one ever told me when I was alone,
They just thought I'd know better... Better...
