Better Off Songtext
You're a ghost,
the mistake I miss the most
and I'm losing hope.
'Cause all and all,
there's nothing left to change.
You're exposed,
when the heart and mind aren't close.
A forgotten road
that disappears before I find a way
to get you to stay
You didn't change your mind,
but you're not better off.
I couldn't take back time...
I'm not better off
So all that could've been is paper thin
and we'll never know, we'll never know
You're a curse
that can never be reversed
and it's getting worse
(when we both know that I'm the one to blame)
And to you,
how could I be untrue?
My grip so loose,
that holding on is all that remains
when you don't feel the same
You didn't change your mind,
but you're not better off.
I couldn't take back time...
I'm not better off
So all that could've been is paper thin
and we'll never know, we'll never know
You didn't change your mind,
but you're not better off.
I couldn't take back time...
I'm not better off
So all that could've been is paper thin
and we'll never know, we'll never know
And me, I'm always wrong.
Couldn't make you see
the silver lining sewn on.
It's me, the one you lean on.
We can find some common ground
to believe in, believe it.
You didn't change your mind,
but you're not better off.
I couldn't take back time...
I'm not better off
So all that could've been is paper thin
and we'll never know, we'll never know
You didn't change your mind,
but you're not better off.
I couldn't take back time...
I'm not better off
So all that could've been is paper thin
and we'll never know, we'll never know
the mistake I miss the most
and I'm losing hope.
'Cause all and all,
there's nothing left to change.
You're exposed,
when the heart and mind aren't close.
A forgotten road
that disappears before I find a way
to get you to stay
You didn't change your mind,
but you're not better off.
