Before It's too Late vs. Better Days

This question has been on my mind alot, for some reason. I think because both songs sortof "popped out of nowhere" so to say. If that makes sense. I really love the verses of BITL, and the lyrics are amazing. I think I like Before It's too Late better.

I'm not sure yet. Better Days became this powerful anthem that I'm sure will stand the test of time for years. I do like BITL but I haven't heard it enough to be able to compare it yet.

To be honest, I'm not a huge fan of either song.  BITL, for me, has better lyrics than Better Days, but I think I like the music of Better Days more than BITL.

At first listen, I say "Better Days". After 15 listens, I love "Before it's too late" to death. It's the kind of song that you have to get use to and you love it.  I got sick of "better days" after a few listens and I don't even think of it. "Before it's too late" is probably better than "i'm still here", and the 3rd best song in the last decade. I can't stop listening to it. Goo's done good!

Better Days
 
regardless of what I thought of either song later, judging by my initial reactions I was ecstatic when I heard Better Days and let down as soon as I heard the opening note of Before It's Too Late.

Pon, when you say the third best song in the last decade, do you mean Iris?

Well, this is how I look at it.  
 
Since 2000, these are my favorite songs:
1) Big Machine
2) Let Love In
3) Fiction (Before It's too Late)
4) I'm Still Here
5) It's Over
 
90s:  
 
1) Naked
2) Long Way Down
3) Fallin Down
4) Name
 
Iris is a great song, but it's nowhere being good compared to their other material. When I make a best of CD, usually 2 CDs, I never put Iris on it.
