Killers - Joseph, Better You Than Me lyrics

rate me

Brandon Flowers:

Well your eyes just haven't been the same, Joseph

Are you bad at dealing with the fame, Joseph?

There's a pale m_onshine above you

Do you see both sides?

Do they shove you around?

Elton John:

Is the touchdown forcing you to hide, Joseph?

Are the Romans eating you alive, Joseph?

Brandon Flowers:

When the holy night is upon you

Will you do what's right?

The position is yours

Elton John:

From the tearful walls

To the New York night

Our decisions rest on a child

When she took her stand, did she hold your hand?

Will your faith stand still or run away?

Run away...

When they've driven you so far

Did you think you're gonna drop?

Do you wish you were back there at the carpenter's shop?

Neil Tennant:

With the pain never ends

The work never drove you mad

Your maker, a Creator

Not just somebody's dad

All:

From the tearful walls

To the New York night

Our decisions rest on the man

When I take the stand, will he hold my hand?

Will my faith stand still or run away?

(Run away...)

Elton John:

And the desert, it's a hell of a place to find heaven

Forty years lost in the wilderness looking for God

And you climb to the top of the mountain

Looking down on the city

Where you were born

All:

All the years since you left

Gave you time to sit back and reflect

Better you than me

Better you than me

Better you than me, yeah

When the holy night is upon you (better you, better you)

Do you see both sides?

Do they shove you around?

(Better you than me) Joseph

Better than you than me

(Better you than me) Joseph, Joseph, Joseph

(Better you than me) Joseph

Than me

Better you than me

Better you (better you than me)

Better you, better you than me

Well your eyes just haven't been the same, Joseph
