Better Off Without

[Verse 1]
Maybe in a year or so
We’ll be better off, we won’t
So I’ll begin to question it
Maybe that’s unfair of me
I’ve never been an optimist

[Pre-Chorus]
There appears to be a better way to deal with it

[Chorus]
I always seek the worst in everything
Served me okay up to now
I think you’re better off without

[Verse 2]
I can’t seem to connect the dots
I’m starting to fear we’re lost
And as the clouds start drawing clear
And I lose sense of why we’re here
You think I’m okay, I’m not

[Pre-Chorus]
There appears to be a better way to deal with it

[Chorus]
I always seek the worst in everything
Served me okay up to now
I think you’re better off without
I always seek the worst in everything
Served me okay up to now
I think you’re better off without

[Bridge]
If you fear the worst will come your way
And guard against the brighter days
You’ll begin to bargain with yourself
So take a thought and live with that
You growing hypochondriac
Will never bet on anybody else
There appears to be a better way to deal with it

[Chorus]
I always seek the worst in everything
Served me okay up to now
I think you’re better off without
I always seek the worst in everything
Served me okay up to now
I think you’re better off without

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
I always seek the worst in everything
Served me okay up to now
I think you’re better off without
