Better Off

Hi, it’s nice to meet you, I’ve been waiting all my life for this
A kiss, it’s just a kiss but I feel it going somewhere, it might be bliss
Ah, 'cause it’s hard to see that no one really cares
And it’s so unfair
And it’s gonna be hard, you can see 'em walk away
It’ll break your heart but you’ll realize someday
That you’ll be better off being lonely this time
Build me up, bring me down
The pressure’s high, it’s getting hard to bear
I swear if I could just get one big win.
I’d run right out of here
Ah, 'cause it’s hard to break illusions when they’re shown
And you’re on your own
And she tries so hard just to get you to walk away
And you justify to yourself the fact you stay
So give me 21 more reasons and that’s fine
Don’t ask her, figure it out
Behind her eyes, there’s shades of doubt
She’s chasing you away
So just watch her walk away
It’ll break your heart but you’ll realize someday
That you’ll be better off being lonely this time
That you’ll be better off being lonely this time
