Bill Swinton - Better Off

  

Can we lie here for a moment? 

Let the silence, consume us 

In the darkness, I see you 

But there's another, that you're sweet to 

And it's been a while, since I 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 

It's tearing you apart just to hold me 

And I don't wanna 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 thinking 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 

(wooooah) 

 

I don't want you to hurt anymore 

But it's tearing you apart just to hold me 

And I don't wanna 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 

 

 I’m still reminded 

It’s never enough

 I need you beside me 

I can’t give you up 

It’s too hard to fight it 

I’m too hard to love 

So you’re better off 

 

I don't want you to hurt anymore 

But it's tearing you apart just to hold me 

And I don't wanna lay here alone 

But you're better off with him and I know it
