Better If You Make Me Lyrics by Ryan Davis & the Roadhouse Band
I’ll give up if you let me
I’ll be a hero if you teach me how
I can change
I can change for the better
If you make me
I’ll clean it up if you bleed me out
I drive a whodunnit
My rocket ship
Is covered in graffiti now
Sometimes even a white flag
Has its own process of weeding out
I’ll give up if you let me
I’ll give up if you let me
I’ll go on and on it
And embrace your release
Just leave the fish tank light on, babe
And crank the *** Für Elise
Earth science sipping XO cognac
In the back of the donkey show
Everything is a secret
Everything is a secret, secret
Everything is secret ’til somebody knows
I’d be willing to change, change
Change for the better
But only if you don’t want me to go
I’ll board it up if you let me
I’ll spray my name on the 2x4s
I’ll start flipping through clippings of
Modern Martyr Quarterly classifieds
Just to find me something to die for
We could get our initials in the concrete now
The passion’s there
There are times when a white flag
Is nothing but a blank canvas that waves
For what happens next
I’d be willing to change, change
Change for the better
I bet I could, baby
I could change, change
Change for the better
I bet I could, baby
I could change, change
I could change
If you claim
That I said I would, baby
I’d be willing to change
Change for the better
If you made me
I’ll give up if you let me
I’ll be a hero if you read me the news
Hold my hair back, baby
I think I’m about to be singing the blues
Tell me are we really in pain
Or is nothing?
Is it really gonna rain
Or is it bluffing?
Am I ever gonna change
And if not, what then are we to do?
My windshield’s appalling
My rocket ship is covered in graffiti too
Everything was a secret
Everything was a secret, secret
Everything in the world was a secret
‘Till somebody knew
When I’m waving this white flag
As it pertains to me and you
Understand that we’re fighting a war
We can’t lose
I’d be willing to change for the better
If you need me to
I’d be willing to change, change
Change for the better
I bet I could, baby
I could change, change
Change for the better
I bet I could, baby
I would change, change
I would change
I would change
If said I would, baby
I’d be willing to change
Change for the better
If you made me
I’d be willing to change, change
Change for the better
I bet I could, baby
I could change, change
Change for the better
I bet I could, baby
I would change, change
I would change
I would change
If I said I would, baby
I’d be willing to change
Change for the better
I bet I could, baby
If you made me change
Change for the better
I bet I could, baby
If you make me change
