A Better Man

from Beyond My Showerhead by Tommy DiMeo

/

lyrics

Tears in my eggs
Pressure's low
I can use the extra salt
I never did learn to grow up
I'll learn it from a better man than I
It's not his fault

When worlds come crumbling down
Us people lay in pieces on the ground
I'd walk these streets if I had to
To try and be my brother's glue

We sat on counter-tops like boys
And wished we hadn't seen our boy
Become a man
This way

Within the stairwell, picked me off the floor
And offered more than just
A laugh at broken shower heads,
A heart to heart, and makeshift beds

I've built a debt I can never pay
But how I wish I could today

He lyin’ seven feet away from me
But there's no distance I can see
Between us
I'd walk streets, you know it’s true
It’s just a thing that brothers do

I’d walk these streets if I had to
To try and be my brother’s glue

(Tears in my eggs
Pressure's low
I can use the extra salt
I never did learn to grow up)

I’m learning from a better man
Than I

A better man than I
