Better Off

You
Believe in all I say
Then you throw it all away
Before you close the door
Are you really any,
Better off than before?
You
Go rambling through my day
While I’m out here making my way
Yet, still, I walk the floor
Am I really any,
Better off than before?
Things never looked so rosy
Everything’ll be okay
I couldn’t be much better
If I tried
When I get myself to bed
With the words that never got said
Turning on the news
Are we ever any,
Better off when we lose?
And we can pick and choose
You
Had a pathway to my heart
Till the cruel world took it apart
Before I close the door
Are you really any,
Better off than before?
You
Meander in my dreams
Leave me halfway in between
So I hit the floor
Am I really any,
Better off than before?
Things never looked so rosy
Everything’ll be alright
I couldn’t be much better
If I tried
You go rambling through my mind
On a path I’m hoping I’ll find
Turning on the news
Are we ever any,
Better off when we lose?
And we can pick and choose
Still, I walk the floor
Are we really any,
Better off than before?
Better off than before
