Maybe I've been scared, maybe I've known fear
Now I only know it from the rear view mirror
It wasn't always pretty, it wasn't always nice
The voices in my head gave good advice
Maybe I used to care that life had been unfair
But that's before I realized that I could walk
The old days ain't coming back, ain't coming back no more
They might as well be tied up in a sack on the ocean floor
With cement blocks

Sometimes wish come true
But I don't think they will for you
You wish that you were that one
But that's the nature of one and I'm that one
I know you know you wish you were
Tell me, tell me, does it hurt?
Don't be mad at me, it's all that I can be
I did not choose for you to lose

Better than best, better than best, I am
Better than best, better than best, I've been
And it's been a couple seconds since I first learned my lesson
That nothing comes from nothing and dancing is the best revenge
Better than best, better than best, never been lesser than
Better than best, better than best and dancing is the best revenge
Revenge

Sure, I still get scared, that's why I'm still here
Those same old fears are there, like I said, it's a rear view mirror
It wasn't always pretty, it wasn't always nice
The voices in my head gave good advice

And one day it all has been
So don't forget to leave 'em laughin'
And if you got no epitaph then
Just leave 'em something in Latin
Sometimes wish come true
But I don't think they will for you
You wish that you were that one
But that's the nature of one and I'm that one
I'm that one

Better than best, better than best, I am
Better than best, better than best, I've been
And it's been a couple seconds since I first learned my lesson
That nothing comes from nothing and dancing is the best revenge
Better than best, better than best, never been lesser than
Better than best, better than best and dancing is the best revenge
Revenge
One day it all has been
So don't forget to leave 'em laughin'
(Revenge)
And if you got no epitaph then
Just leave 'em something in Latin
