BETTER OFF AWAY

[Verse 1]
As I watch
Blood drain slow you’re flushed
Heart beats low now hushed
And the silence gets to me
And my crutch that I leaned on for so long
It’s gone
And you’ve seemed to move on now oh ever so fast
I don’t think it will last
'Cause it’s not like what we had
You can try to make believe or pretend
I can taste the regret

[Hook]
Cover me so gently now
Lay me to sleep
I don't want this pain, no, my soul you can keep
And this toll that it takes, oh, the world is so mean
In my bones, there's an ache for thе endless serеne

Bury it so deep
Heart of mine you break
Hold inside your hands
Leave it in my past
Hold me as I bleed
I'm still running down your wrist
I'm better off away
I'm better off away

[Verse 2]
Now that we're alone
Won't you tell me your secrets
I won't share at all, just between us I'll keep this
So I'm the only one knows all those dark little deeds
Keep your enemies so close, you expose the deceit
Wrap me up in gasoline
And tie me on those tracks, don't look back
Now you strike a match for me
To cover up evidence that you left
Maybe this was best for me
I'd rather it be you than somebody else
Lying in your bed, knowing that my last words said were please just

Bury it so deep
Heart of mine you break
Hold inside your hands
Leave it in my past
Hold me as I bleed
I'm still running down your wrist
I'm better off away
I'm better off away
