whitney peyton - better (rock version) lyrics

[chorus 1]
see the flash as your life plays back
made a choice that you can’t take back
so when you close your eyes and take your last breath
tell me: is it really better, is it really better?
see the flash as your life plays back
made a choice that you can’t take back
so when you close your eyes and take your last breath
tell me: is it really better, is it really better?

[verse 1]
newborn, left alone by the dumpster
16; now n0body wants her
where’s her father, where’s her mother?
p-ssed off again, an orphanage
these kids are left to wonder:
“don’t you love me? why’d you leave me?
if you couldn’t raise a baby, why the f-ck did you conceive me?!”
she lays her head back, daydreaming
a couple minutes later, she receives a call from cece
cece says, “i got a couple grams
if you got a couple dollars, you should hit the spot and meet me.”
now she’s diggin’ through the pocket of her jeans
living like an addict in the mindset of a teen
she rushes down the street, hops in a black car
coughing up her money for a bag of black tar
it’s a shame she never noticed that she stuck it in her arm
that the tonic meant to help her was the one doin’ the harm
and now she’s gone

[chorus 2]
see the flash as your life plays back (plays back)
made a choice that you can’t take back
so when you close your eyes and take your last breath
tell me: is it really better, is it really better?
see the flash as your life plays back (plays back)
made a choice that you can’t take back
so when you close your eyes and take your last breath
tell me: is it really better, is it really better?

[verse 2]
meet tammy; she’s a rebel, never listened
her father wants her to excel and be a good christian
all she wants is money, always worried about her image
in material things, putting feelings at a distance
another pretty girl caught up in the quicksand
down to sell her body every time she meets a rich man
it might be a lack of self-respect
but it’s easy to forget when they make out the check
it’s like, every night she sticks out her neck
for what? a gold bracelet and a necklace set
now she’s gettin’ in her car, drivin’ to the hotel
about to make another stack if it all goes well
it’s a client that she’s met up with a lot
but as soon as she arrived everything just went a rye
they got into a fight, he whipped out a gun and shot her
when she took her last breath, all she thought of was her father

[verse 3]
seven in the morning, john is out the front door
jacket full of cash, yet he always wants more
with a heart full of sorrow and a face full of greed
running from his problems; chasing only green
when he’s home, it’s like he faces his whole life
he’s never known love; he don’t like his own wife
that’s why he’s havin’ s-x on the side
always searchin’ for a purpose in the depths of the night; it ain’t right
it ain’t a way to live; immersed in his work, another business trip
so he packs his bags and he kisses his kids
little do they know he went to meet his trick, it’s an addiction
but tonight it’s different when the feelings start to surface and ignite the friction
he produces a gun and doesn’t think of his family, shoots her and himself
her name was tammy
