Lyrics:
Verse 1 (Phoebe)
We were good,
We were gold,
Kinda dream that can’t be sold.
We were right,
Til we weren’t,
Built a home and watched it burn.
Verse 1 continued (Erin)
I didn’t wanna leave you,
I didn’t wanna lie,
Started to cry but then remembered I...
Chorus 1 (Jina):
I can buy myself flowers,
Write my name in the sand,
Talk to myself for hours,
Say things you don’t understand.
Chorus 1 (Judy) [simultaneously]
I can love me better
I can love me better, yeah.
I can love me better
I can love me better, yeah.
I can love me better
I can love me better, yeah.
I can love me better
I can love me better, yeah.
Chorus 1 continued (Erin)
I can take myself dancing,
And I can hold my own hand.
Yeah I can love me better than you can.
Verse 2 (Grace)
Paint my nails cherry red,
Match the roses that you left.
No remorse, no regret,
I forgive every word you said.
Verse 2 continued (Megan)
You think you got the best of me,
You think you had the last laugh,
I betcha think that everything good is gone.
Think you left me broken down,
Think that I’d come running back.
You don’t know me,
You’re dead wrong.
Verse 2 continued (Court) [simultaneously]
Ooh I didn’t wanna leave babe,
I didn’t wanna fight,
Started to cry but then remembered I...
Chorus 2 (Antonia)
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger,
Stand a little taller,
Doesn’t mean I’m lonely when I’m alone.
What doesn’t kill you makes a fighter,
Footsteps even lighter,
Doesn’t mean I’m over cause you’re gone.
Chorus 2 (Court) [simultaneously]
I can buy myself flowers,
Write my name in the sand,
Talk to myself for hours,
Say things things you don’t understand.
Chorus 2 continued (Evie)
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, stronger,
Just me myself and I.
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, ooh.
Chorus 2 continued (Thaejus) [simultaneously]
I can take myself dancing,
And I can hold my own hand.
Yeah I can love me better than you can.
I love me better
I love me better, babe.
I love me better
I love me better.
I love me better
I love me better, babe.
I love me better
I love me better.
Bridge (Livvy)
What’s wrong with being,
What’s wrong with being,
What’s wrong with being confident.
Bridge continued (Anson)
I can buy myself flowers,
Write my name in the sand,
Talk to myself for hours,
Say things things you don’t understand.
I can take myself dancing,
Yeah I can hold my own hand.
Yeah I can love me better than you can.
I love me better
I love me better, babe.
I love me better
I love me better, baby.
I love me better
I love me better, babe.
I love me better
I love me better, baby.
Outro (Clare)
I didn’t wanna leave you,
I didn’t wanna lie,
Started to cry but then remembered I...
