Better Half

Met you in a bookstore in a mall
Man, those were days where we had it all
Remember when you broke down on the phone
I should have held you and said you're not alone

Leaving me has finally give you peace
So you can stop being heart if it helps you breath
Know that I could die a happy man
If flowers from my grave were to end up in your hand

If I lose my self worth over you
If you think of me then know that I think bout you too
Tried my best but never could have seen
You were always the better half of me

Turns out I still love you to your bones
And it's a lie that words don't hurt like sticks and stones
And one day I'll pack up and leave the town
Far away where I can't bring you down

As I'm there I think I'm prone to change
And what it doesn't is my tears still fall like rain
If I lose my self worth only you
If you think of me then know that I think bout you too

Tried my best but never could have seen
You were always the better half of me
If all I have of me is the ghost of you
If your velvet pink turned to winter shades of blue

Or if the best of words are wish you luck
Then it's a disrespect to the feelings in my gut
If I lose my self-worth over you
If you think of me and know that I can vouch for you

Tried my best but never could have seen
You were always the better half of me
