Better Off Lyrics by Will Swinton
Can we lay here for a moment? Let the silence consume us
In the darkness, I see you, but there’s another, it’s [?]
And it’s been a while since I’ve felt you
Did you feel like a liar when he held you?
And, baby, I’m sorry, I feel so selfish
For wanting to want you, I just couldn’t help it, no
Don’t want you to hurt anymore
But it’s tearin’ you apart just to hold me
And I don’t lay here alone
But you’re better off with him, and I know it
Does he love you like you need it?
Does he touch you like he means it?
You tell me it’s over, like I’ll believe it
You say you need closure, so we go and repeat it
Then you run back to him, and you lie through your teeth
‘Cause you say it’s forever when you’re thinkin’ of me
And I know you’ve been searching for something I was
But you pull back the curtain to the man I’ve become, woah
I don’t want you to hurt anymore
But it’s tearin’ you apart just to hold me
And I don’t lay here alone
But you’re better off with him, and I know it
I wish I could’ve gave you enough
And been everything that you ever wanted
But maybe I should lay here alone
‘Cause you’re better off with him, and I know it
Woah
Oh, I still remember, it isn’t enough
I need you beside me, I can’t give you up
It’s too hard to fight here, I’m too hard to love
So you’re better off
I don’t want you to hurt anymore
But it’s tearin’ you apart just to hold me
And I don’t lay here alone
But you’re better off with him, and I know it
