Better Off Alone

Better off alone

Verse 1

She was a golden goddess six years my senior

Thicker than thieves with my older sister

Go figure she had a man who detailed cars and had paint stained hands

All the time no lie

He was long gone but she was still gloomy

Had no time for me she looked right through me

Just so I could feel her touch I told her

I didn’t mind she could cry on my shoulder anytime I don’t mind

Chorus

She’s better off alone with me

Nothings ever really what it seems to be

He’s just a pain in the past and I’ve got the love and it’s gonna last

And she’s better way better she’s better off alone with me

Verse 2

I think she still see’s me skateboarding

And watching cartoons on Saturday mornings

He was a towering 5 foot ten and I can’t compete with the memory of him

But I’m gonna try

Chorus

Bridge

 

The world surrounds her now in her time of need

But she’ll find out someday

She’s better way better she’s better way better

She’s better off alone with me

Half chorus
