[Verse 1]

             
If you were a 

              
teacher, I wou

   
ld fail your c

lass
            
Take it over a

              
nd over 'til y

            
ou noticed me
             
If you were a 

              
waiting room, 

     
I would never 

see a doctor
            
I would sit th

              
ere with my fi

              
rst-aid kit an

     
d bleed


[Chorus]

         
I wanna be the

            
 power ballad 

              
that lifts you

        
 up and holds 

     
you down
         
I wanna be the

            
 broken love s

              
ong that feeds

      
 your misery
         
And I can wish

            
 all that I wa

             
nt, but it won

          
't bring us to


gether
        
Plus, I know w

              
hatever happen

     
s to me, I kno

w it's for the

 better


[Verse 2]
             
And when broke

          
n bodies are w


ashed ashore
            
Who am I to as

            
k for more, mo

    
re, more?
             
But you're bre

             
athing in my o


pen mouth
            
You're the gun

              
 in my lips th

            
at will blow m

         
y brains out


[Chorus]
         
I wanna make y

ight just beca

            
use I said, "M

     
aybe you shoul

d come over"
         
Wanna make you

            
 fall in love 

           
as hard as my 

           
poor parents' 

             
teenage daught

  
er
              
She'll be the 

           
best you ever 

         
had if you let

   
 her


[Bridge]
  
I know it's fo

r the better

Know it's for 

the better

Know it's for 

the better
            
Know it's for

Know it's for 

the better

Know it's for 

the better

Know it's for 

the better
            
Know it's for 

    
the better
