Better Off Alone
You said a lot of things last night
You left me speechless
That's not necessarily a good thing this time
Cause I've been so numb for so long
My nerves have frozen up
The shock eventually wears off
And you'll be asking me what went wrong
You'll be asking me what went wrong
You're the world I left behind
You ask for something that I can't provide
Your peace of mind
Now I've gone and locked you out
You're on your own
Cause I might be better off alone
You don't wanna be the one I string along
And leave you heartsick
Cause I try not to play it cruel
But you've tried so many times
To win my heart back in your favor
Why don't you spare me the truth
And just pretend that we've both let go
Cause baby I let you go
You're the world I left behind
You ask for something that I can't provide
Your peace of mind
Now I've gone and locked you out
You're on your own
Cause I might be better off alone
I hear your every cry
But I hide, I hide behind these walls
And I feel guilty
But your genuine surprise
It breaks my heart but we can't keep
No we can't keep on trying
You're the world I left behind
You ask for something that I can't provide
Your peace of mind
Now I've gone and locked you out
You're on your own
Cause I might be better off alone
You're the world I left behind
You ask for something that I can't provide
Your peace of mind
Now I've gone and locked you out
You're on your own
Cause I might be better off alone
You left me speechless
That's not necessarily a good thing this time
Cause I've been so numb for so long
My nerves have frozen up
The shock eventually wears off
And you'll be asking me what went wrong
You'll be asking me what went wrong
You're the world I left behind
You ask for something that I can't provide
Your peace of mind
Now I've gone and locked you out
You're on your own
Cause I might be better off alone
You don't wanna be the one I string along
And leave you heartsick
Cause I try not to play it cruel
But you've tried so many times
To win my heart back in your favor
Why don't you spare me the truth
And just pretend that we've both let go
Cause baby I let you go
You're the world I left behind
You ask for something that I can't provide
Your peace of mind
Now I've gone and locked you out
You're on your own
Cause I might be better off alone
I hear your every cry
But I hide, I hide behind these walls
And I feel guilty
But your genuine surprise
It breaks my heart but we can't keep
No we can't keep on trying
You're the world I left behind
You ask for something that I can't provide
Your peace of mind
Now I've gone and locked you out
You're on your own
Cause I might be better off alone
You're the world I left behind
You ask for something that I can't provide
Your peace of mind
Now I've gone and locked you out
You're on your own
Cause I might be better off alone
