This track was recorded at Full Sail Studio's (Orlando, Fl) in 1996. Given that Todd and Tom were students at the school they were eligible for free studio time during and toyed with the idea of just getting a track down for the hell of it. After a few practices with some musician acquaintances they opted to go with "Better To Be" although the groups real vote was to go with an early version of "Your Own Way". Feeling that "Your Own Way" was unfinished Todd persuaded the others to stick with the more complete "Better To Be". Recorded and mixed in 4-5 hours the track gave fuel to Todd and Tom to pursue a more serious efforts.
1. BETTER TO BE
The guilt has since left here,
I'm feeling numb today
and they don't give a damn about what I am,
your stuck in your own ways
You don't want to see, you don't wanna be, you never understand me
What I say, what I mean, what I do what I said
Will you ever get it through your head, and now
Sometimes I'm better off alone, and I say
Sometimes I don't know what you mean, and it's true and it's possible
Sometimes you just don't see, what is happening around you now
Sometimes it's better to be
You thought once I thought twice, about being wrong and right
And I don't have a care, I don't have a need, for you to look after me
And you've grown apart from yourself some how, who are you blaming now
I don't want to believe that were gonna end, you were my only friend and now
