about

"Better This Way is a song about that strange state of mind you’re in when your heart is broken, sort of at a distance from the world, and how, even when you know it’s time to move on, the simplest words can sting…. It’s simple and soulful, and I like where it landed, sonically. It seems both old and new, which is really what we were going for. Producers Al Sgro and Will Golden did an amazing job giving it that vibe.” - Greg Felden in The Bluegrass Situation

lyrics

Say that we’re through / Since you’ve been gone, you don’t feel blue / Say we should part / We’ve come too far to know where to start / But I see the wind in the trees / and the sound is so far away / So please don’t say, it’s better this way / Say it’s not right / We just don’t work, and God knows we tried / Say I was wrong / Now you can see it was me all along / But I read this chapter again / The same one I read yesterday / So please don’t say, it’s better this way / I know we’re back here again / The same place we find ourselves in / I’m not pretending that everything’s fine / I have no words of my own / To unsow the seeds we have sown / All I am asking is baby be kind / Say that it’s gone / I should let go, try to move on / Say that it’s true / You couldn’t wait, you found someone new / But I cannot tell you a lie / My heart, it breaks every day / So please don’t say it’s better this way / So please don’t say it’s better this way
