[Verse 1: Sam Fender] It opened up Pandora's box And it all came rushin' out like water Trapped inside a pressurised valve I lay crooked on the stairs Pickin' fights with my reflection Tryna' pry out some answers from that idiot I spend many days takin' walks around the house that You and I spent all our adolescent nights You hurt my heart and subsequently I hurt others And I'm no further than I was before [Chorus: Sam Fender] God you really got the better of me God you really got the better of me [Verse 2: Sam Fender & Brooke Bentham] And I hated you I was so jealous of your standin' And I envied your happy family Oh, I looked like sh*t Stuck in all my vice rotations Tryna' find light in every broken soul I convinced myself that you were just another chemical I needed to be sweated out Until I saw you on the beach Flashin' smiles at every passerby That caught your beautiful eye [Chorus: Sam Fender] God you really got the better of me God you really got the better of me God you really got the better of me God you really got the better of me God you really got the better of me God you really got the better of me
