Kelly Clarkson
Be Careful/Better Now/Ex-Factor
[Intro]
Be careful with me
Be careful with me
Be careful
[Chorus]
You probably think that you are better now (better now)
I only say that 'cause I'm not around (not around)
You know that all you did was let me down (let me down)
Would've gave you anything, would've gave you everything
You probably think that you are better now (better now)
I only say that 'cause I'm not around (not around)
You know that all you do is let me down (let me down)
Would've gave you anything, would've gave you everything
Oh-oh
[Verse]
I wanna get married, like the Currys, Steph and Ayesha
But we more like Belly - Tommy and Keisha
Gave you TLC, you wanna creep and yeah
Poured out my whole heart to a piece of shh....
Man, I thought you would've learned your lesson
'Bout likin' pictures, not returnin' texts
I guess it's fine, man, I get the message
You still stutter after certain questions
You keep in contact with certain exes
[Pre-Chorus]
Do you, though, trust me? Boy, it's cool, though
Said that you was workin', but you out here chasin' who knows
Who knows, who knows
Hey
[Chorus]
You probably think that you are better now (better now)
I only say that 'cause I'm not around (not around)
You know that all you did was let me down (let me down)
Would've gave you anything, would've gave you everything
You probably think that you are better now (better now)
I only say that 'cause I'm not around (not around)
You know that all you do is let me down (let me down)
Would've gave you anything, would've gave you everything
Oh-oh
[Verse]
The only man that I adore
I gave you everything, what's mine is yours
I want you to live your life of course
But I hope you get what you dyin' for
Be careful with me, do you know what you doin'?
Whose feelings that you're hurtin' and bruisin'?
You gon' gain the whole world
But is it worth the girl that you're losin'?
[Bridge]
I did not believe that it would end, no
Everything came second to the Benzo
You're not even speakin' to my friends, no
You know all my uncles and my aunts though
Twenty candles, blow 'em out and open your eyes
We were lookin' forward to the rest of our lives
Used to keep my picture posted by your bedside
Now it's in your dresser with the socks you don't like
And I'm rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin'
With my brothers like it's Jonas, Jonas
Drinkin' Henny and I'm tryna forget
But I can't get you outta my...
[Chorus]
You probably think that you are better now (better now)
I only say that 'cause I'm not around (not around)
You know that all you did was let me down (let me down)
Would've gave you anything, would've gave you everything
You probably think that you are better now (better now)
I only say that 'cause I'm not around (not around)
You know that all you do is let me down (let me down)
Would've gave you anything, would've gave you everything
[Breakdown]
You always say that you would care for me, care for me
I know you care for me, there for me, there for me
Said you'd be there for me, cry for me, cry for me
You said you'd die for me, give to me, give to me
Why won't you live for me?
Care for me, care for me
You said you'd care for me, there for me, there for me
Said you'd be there for me, cry for me, cry for me
You said you'd die for me, give to me, give to me
Why won't you live for me?
[Outro]
Where were you when I needed you?
