Better men than me have fallen down
Better men have felt the slipping of thier crown
Left there in disgrace
Life's not a meritocratic place
But it's happened to much better men than me!

Better men than me have list thier friends
Better men have met much bitter ends
Lost in Life's raging sea
It's an ugly way to be
Yet, it's happened to much better men than me

Better men than me have been held back
Better men have even had the sack
Nothing left to look forward to
"Admit it! Cos' it's True!"
It's happened to much better men than you!!

Better men than me have gone astray
Better men never knew another way
Never given a single chance
Innocent victims of circumstance 
Yes, that's happened to much better men than me!

Better men than me have lost thier loves
Better men have never loved at all
Abandoned and alone
Like a stray dog without a home
That's happened to much better men I've known!!

Better men than me have had to die
Better men just couldn't help but cry
But in those final hours
And the last dwindling of my powers
There's one thought that will, at last, set me free!
It will have all happened to much better men than me!!

If I Gave You Flowers

By Brian Hendrix

Sometimes breakups happen abruptly and are anything but mutual, and so the person left is resolved to get their lover back. This is a song about that. "If I gave you flowers" was just a line in my head all day. I couldn't go to sleep until I wrote this song. I'm really happy with the way it turned out, especially the chorus. I think the wording throughout is very clever.
