Joseph, Better You than Me
[Brandon]
Well your eyes just haven't been the same, Joseph
Are you bad at dealing with the fame, Joseph?
There's a pale moonshine above you
Do you see both sides?
Do they shove you around?
[Elton]
Is the touchstone forcing you to hide, Joseph?
Are the rumours eating you alive, Joseph?
[Brandon]
When the holy night is upon you
Will you do what's right?
The position is yours
[Elton]
From the temple walls to the New York night
Our decisions rest on a child
When she took her stand
Did she hold your hand?
Will your faith stand still or run away?
Run away
When they've driven you so far
That you think you're gonna drop
Do you wish you were back there at the carpenter shop?
[Neil]
With the plane and the lathe
The work never drove you mad
You're a maker, a creator
Not just somebody's dad
[Everyone]
From the temple walls to the New York night
Our decisions rest on a man
When I take the stand
Will he hold my hand?
Will my faith stand still or run away?
Run away
And the desert
It's a hell of a place to find heaven
Forty years lost in the wilderness looking for God
And you climb to the top of the mountain
Looking down on the city
Where you were born
On the years since you left
Gave you time to sit back and reflect
Better you than me
Better you than me
Better you than me
Yes
[Brandon]
Well the holy night is upon you
Do you see both sides?
Do they shove you around?
[Everyone]
Better you than me
Joseph
Better you than me
Joseph
Joseph
Joseph
Joseph
Than me
Better you than me
Better you
Better you
Better you
Than me
[Brandon]
Well your eyes just haven't been the same, Joseph
