Melissa Etheridge - A Better Me lyrics

Somehow I find myself on the highest shelf
With all the broken toys
Making all the broken noise
I look around and see everybody else but me
Is sweet and shine everything is fine

Everybody else got the money and the game
Got the juice,  got the power
Got the sparkle and the fame everybody else
They seem to know their name
Won't somebody tell me, who am I?

I've been in the cities
I've been running down the streets
I've been in the shadows
I've been in between the sheets
I've been looking for a better me

How can I express
When my life is such a mess?
It's crash and burn
Every single thing I learn
I look around and see everybody else but me
Has all the class magic in the looking glass

Everybody else got the money and the game
They got the juice, got the power
Got the sparkle and the fame everybody else
They seem to know their name
Won't somebody tell me who am I?

I've been in the cities
I've been running down the streets
I've been in the shadows
I've been in between the sheets
I've been looking for a better me

The hurt and the pain will be my guide
With everything that I've tried to hide
I'm gonna rise up filled with pride
This better me is deep inside

I've been in the cities
I've been running down the streets
I've been in the shadows
I've been in between the sheets
I've been looking for a better me

I've been in the cities
I've been running down the streets
I've been in the shadows
I've been in between the sheets
I've been looking for a better me

The hurt and the pain will be my guide
This better me is deep inside
This better me is deep inside
This better me is deep inside
This better me, a better me
