Better

By Plumb

1,049 views Jul 22, 2026 updated Verified editorial review

Plumb's song explores the pain of being targeted by someone's fear-driven anger and the desire to respond with care rather than hate. The lyrics describe a person who lashes out when afraid, saying hurtful things they don't mean. The singer refuses to be broken, recognizing that the attacker's own actions ultimately lead to their own brokenness and growth. The song touches on themes of fear, emotional resilience, and the hope that what breaks us can make us better. While it addresses relational conflict and inner healing, it does not explicitly reference God or Christian faith.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

You live inside a dream

Everything taste so sweet as long as it agrees with how you feel

Your dancing in your sleep

To all the eyes that look at me

Are working your anxieties


Your so afraid, so you try to break me


I don't want to care

And I don't want to hate

And I don't want to see you fall to far away

All because of fear.

Cause when your afraid

You lash out at me

And you say all the things that you never ment to say

And try to break me


But in the end what leaves you broken

In the end it makes you better


Your face it looks so green

When the sun is shining differently

And your standing in the shade

Cause face to face your so sweet

Like candy sticking to my teeth

But underneath so damaging


There's no strength in trying to break me


I don't want to care

And I don't want to hate

And I don't want to see you fall to far away

All because of fear.

Cause when your afraid

You lash out at me

And you say all the things that you never meant to say

And try to break me


But in the end what leaves you broken

In the end it makes you better
