You patronize yourself in front of all your frinds

you wonder why your dreams have all been spent

and up is where you're not and haven't been for

quite sometime

You're barely hanging on

finding out he's gone again

his lies are blowing smoke inside your head

andwe all know in our hearts,

but you don't know yet

You're too good for him, You're too good for him

You build a house of sand up against the tide

and can't believe the luck

that's never on your side

he sells you what you fear and you buy his alibis

You're too good for him, You're too good for him

Where'd you get the dumb idea that love has to

hurt to get what you want

cause you don't have to dance

You're too good for him

You throw away you're pride

at the usual time and place

you wear your porcelain smile

that's heavy on your face

he feeds you crumbs of hope to light your eyes

then waves another one of his goodbyes

You're too good for him
