Better Off With Him Lyrics by Jonathan Roy
I tried to make our home in the woods by the lake
But every other corners got another mistake
And I know that I’m beginning to let you down
You get home late you go straight to bed
And I’m building up stories in the back of my head
I close my eyes and beg myself to sleep
Seems like you’ve got somebody else
Don’t you fool me and lie to yourself
I don’t like promises
Oh, I’d be better off if you were getting off with him
And I’m loving loneliness
Guess I’m better off if you were running off with him
You better off with him
You better off with him
I’m hearing you whisper from the top of the stairs
Then you close the door and I just sit in this chair
Sinking in I’m beginning to understand
I’m leaning on faith just a little too much
I feel you pulling back and avoiding my touch
Compromised our love is wearing thin
Seems like you’ve got somebody else
Don’t you fool me and lie to yourself
And I don’t like promises
Oh, I’d be better off if you were getting off with him
And I’m loving loneliness
Guess I’m better off if you were getting off with him
You better off with him
You better off with him
And you can find me in the walls of this house
And you can find me here in the ground
I don’t like promises
Oh, I’d be better off if you were getting off with him
And I’m loving loneliness
Guess I’m better off if you were running off with him
Guess I’m better off if you were running off with him
