Lyrics Better Without You - Youth Brigade

Better Without You

I need to say my life has turned around today
I know i’m lucky to be here
Its been hard but i know i’m strong
I can survive
It’s true the pain reminds me too
When we first met
I thought you were that one for me
The dream too good be to be true
We were young had no real experience
Love was still a wild ride
At first it was easy we had so much fun
Then when you beat me i knew you were scum
You’d scream and you’d hurt me and treat me like dirt
And all the i’m sorry never changed a thing
I’d never dreamed you could treat someone like this
The broken bones convinced me quick
Of course you say
You had the right to act this way
Our love would triumph over all
Why must i prove that i was abused
The evidence is all over me
Perhaps it’s true
That you were beaten and abused
The pain is all over you
It’s never right to take it out on someone else and pass it on
The lie of love is more abuse
But i’m much better without you finally rid of you (repeat)
The police say i shouldn’t feel afraid today just testify to end it all
But they can’t know the rage i feel
They can’t know the pain i feel everyday
The beating the raping’s the treatment like shit
Is it really so suprising she cut off his dick
