Villia - Is this better? [ Music Video ]

"I find it very ironic that the opening line of this song, and the very first idea I had that inspired the whole tune, is " There are corners of my mind I don't ever dare to step into" because in order to actually write it, I had to scour every inch of my memory, the dark, the tainted and the blinding too. Funnily enough, allowing myself to get caught up in the past all over again, turning it inside out, was the only way that I managed to lay it to rest eventually.
One of my favourite things when it comes to creating art is the ability to find beauty within the madness. That's why the question " Is this better? " remains rhetorical throughout the song, because even if it isn't better yet, it will be... you will be... and I swear the song gets better as you do. 🙂 "

There are corners of my mind
I don't ever dare to step into,
Cause I hear your footsteps there,
And I'm scared I might run into you.
And I've been faced with the facts,
But the lesson never lasts.
Guess I'm not ready to learn
Not to hurt myself anymore.

So I seat, night after night,
Playing old songs we'd listen to,
Painting you from memories,
Bit by bit, but it's still not you.
I gave him your words,
Drew him your eyes, he moves like you do
But he'll never compare,
Cause he doesn't love me like you do...did.

So much time losing track
Of who we were and what we had.
Are you better?
Is this better?
Yeah, I know we grew apart,
I grew from it bloomed into art.
Is this better?
Are you better?
Cause now I'm all alone,
And I just need someone to hold
to make it better.
Just make it better.
So much time losing track
Of who we were and what we had,
Will we ever find something better?

There are things I'm scared to say out loud
Because I think them in your voice,
But in the midst of chaos they're the only
Things that shut out all the noise.
Terrified to tell the truth,
That I'm still not over you,
Because that'll make it real
And I've still got so much to lose.

So I seat, night after night,
Playing old songs we'd listen to,
Painting you from memories,
Bit by bit, but it's still not you.
I gave him your words,
Drew him your eyes, he moves like you do,
But he'll never compare,
Cause he doesn't love me like you do...did.

So much time losing track
Of who we were and what we had.
Are you better?
Is this better?
Yeah, I know we grew apart,
I grew from it bloomed into art.
Is this better?
Are you better?
Cause now I'm all alone,
And I just need someone to hold to make it better.
Just make it better.
So much time losing track
Of who we were and what we had.
Will we ever find something better?

Halfway out the door,
Don't let go.
We'll make it through,
Just carry on.
Half out the door,
And you let go.
Well, now we're through.
Time to move on...
