Better Off That Way

What is all the fuss about

I saw the news today

What is there to talk about

Words get in the way

I see things from another side

I see it every day

Everyone wants their share

No one wants to pay

And it seems like the world

Has gone crazy overnight

And I'm tryin' to do my best

But I just can't get it right

And I'm not the kind of boy

Who goes lookin' for a fight

And so I'll say

We're better off that way

We're better off that way

Better off that way

What is all the noise about

It's ringing in my ears

Forget about the ones that shout

It's the quiet ones I fear

And it seems like the world

Has been taken for a ride

And I'm tryin' to do my best

But I just can't get it right

And I'm not the kind of boy

Who goes runnin' from a fight

And so I'll say

We're better off that way

We're better off that way

Better off that way

Learn to love

Forget to hate

Communicate

Celebrate

Try to learn from your mistakes

Anticipate

Believe in fate

Learn to color all your skin

Show the beauty from within

Hold your love through the night

Hold your tongue before a fight

Learn to love

Forget to hate

I gotta run

It's getting late

Anticipate

Believe in fate

We're better off that way
