Better Off Lonely

I'm deluded, a mess and my energy's toxic
Multiple prayers just to help me stop it
I'm outta pocket I don't wanna drag you down with me and I think that's why I'm better off lonely
Better off lonely
Cry for help and then I push the people away
It's almost like I do not wanna be saved
I'm stealing your heart and your soul before I run away and that's why I think I'm better off lonely
Better off lonely

Hide your daughter, your son and your puppy too
The last thing I wanna do is duppy you
But my plague is contagious everybody is a stranger there's no leniency here
Ain't a single place that you're safe running to
No mercy when I'm in a destructive mood
I don't really mess with people unless I need to there's no conveniency there
Who was I kidding I thought I could love you honestly I can't even love myself
It's better you stay the fuck away from me whilst I'm in this position I'm bad for your health
Claiming that I made you happy and I'm the reason for that beautiful smile on your face
I told you at the beginning that I was a mess no surprise when I take it away
I hate that I form connections and get attached as if it's really gonna last
I think I should be alone for the rest of my future keeping it true to my past
I apologise if I hurt you but I'm praying that your healing is fast
There's plenty more fish in the sea for you remember the ocean is vast

I'm deluded, a mess and my energy's toxic
Multiple prayers just to help me stop it
I'm outta pocket I don't wanna drag you down with me and I think that's why I'm better off lonely
Better off lonely
Cry for help and then I push the people away
It's almost like I do not wanna be saved
I'm stealing your heart and your soul before I run away and that's why I think I'm better off lonely
Better off lonely

I'm deluded and a mess, two tattoos on my chest got "heaven" written beneath a flatline
I still move forward with original sin even though as a kid I was baptised
Deeply troubled within I might open up but nah I ain't letting you in
Sorry if I led you astray it's my fault that I've still not found healing
(Urgh) There's no hope for that change
My mind is so cold in that cage
Alone the best way there's no games
With you I won't share my pain
(Urgh) The contact just makes me sick
Two phones and I've got 3 sims
Don't shout me about friendship
I'd rather just it keep it business
You make me uncomfortable
I am partly immune to bull
You try to feed me lies in the hope that I will swallow them up
You claim that you care for me
I am clearly immune to the feeling
You should stop wasting your time for the moment it's just me, myself and all of these demons

I'm deluded, a mess and my energy's toxic
Multiple prayers just to help me stop it
I'm outta pocket I don't wanna drag you down with me and I think that's why I'm better off lonely
Better off lonely
Cry for help and then I push the people away
It's almost like I do not wanna be saved
I'm stealing your heart and your soul before I run away and that's why I think I'm better off lonely
Better off lonely
