Better Off

You can't cut me open

Right before I'm supposed to leave

It's not half an ocean

It's more likely two or three

And I can't swim so I'll probably drown

I won't let you stop loving me

Though I can't make you stay

If there's something between us changing

Let's pretend it's better this way

In the morning as well as the evening

And every time I'm alive in my bed

It's so quiet without the company

And you didn't take your things when you left

I can't hear so I'll probably keep waiting

I won't let you stop loving me

Though I can't make you stay

If there's something between us changing

Let's pretend it's better this way

If I'm hopeless, loathsome, and sorry

While I'm waiting for a second chance to roll

There's no black 23 or a clear path ahead

I'll just stumble and hope to come back

And I can't see so I'll probably fall

I won't let you stop loving me

Though I can't make you stay

If there's something between us changing

Let's pretend it's better this way

Let's pretend it's better this way

Let's pretend it's better this way
