Something Better Came Along Lyrics
Hold those tears
Just tell me its over so I can get over you
All my fears
You say that you're sorry but you will be sorry soon
I feel bad but I can tell by the height of your shoulders that you're glad
All along I guess you were just another line in another song
All of those things you said
Did you mean any of them?
I needed that lift that I got from your texts and calls
But something better came along
Now you're dead to me
A distant memory
Remember my name when you're grey and old
When something better came along
Those few nervous dates
I was drinking before I met you so I could talk
Nothing more than mates
I was drinking throughout until I could barely walk
I'm a fool
I should've guessed by your attitude that you're too cool
Did you care at all?
All of those things you said
Did you mean any of them?
I needed that lift that I got from your texts and calls
But something better came along
Now you're dead to me
A distant memory
Remember my name when you're grey and old
When something better came along
I've gotten used to being wrong
All of those things you said
Did you mean any of them?
I needed that lift that I got from your texts and calls
But something better came along
Now you're dead to me
A distant memory
Remember my name when you're grey and old
When something better came along
Just tell me its over so I can get over you
All my fears
You say that you're sorry but you will be sorry soon
All along I guess you were just another line in another song
Did you mean any of them?
I needed that lift that I got from your texts and calls
But something better came along
Now you're dead to me
A distant memory
Remember my name when you're grey and old
When something better came along
I was drinking before I met you so I could talk
Nothing more than mates
I was drinking throughout until I could barely walk
I should've guessed by your attitude that you're too cool
Did you care at all?
Did you mean any of them?
I needed that lift that I got from your texts and calls
But something better came along
Now you're dead to me
A distant memory
Remember my name when you're grey and old
When something better came along
I've gotten used to being wrong
Did you mean any of them?
I needed that lift that I got from your texts and calls
But something better came along
Now you're dead to me
A distant memory
Remember my name when you're grey and old
When something better came along

i think, and this is just my interpretation; he is thinking about the relationship, the good, the bad, the regrets, his faults, her faults, all of the fun, and heartbreak they endured, and being burdened by the addictive melancholy. This is all happening all while he is on the train (or tube, sorry) going home. All of his fears and doubts are coming alive. it feels like a life time on that train. the pain is far from over for him.
