Janis Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) Hey! I'm really fascinated by the lyrics of Better and I want to know what it means. It's one of Axl's best lyrics for sure. Obviously it sounds very personal and the lyrics suggest how he's had to overcome struggle and bad relationships perhaps? There are some interpretations on the net but I'd like to know what ya guys on the forum think. Or has Axl ever hinted at the meaning? Discuss!

plonker88 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I have always assumed it is ex-girlfriend/wife related, but it could be about anyone really. I doubt Axl would ever come out and pinpoint the person who it focuses on as it would impact on how people hear the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
