He cut all my lines
So he could write me out slowly
I still fall in love so easy with men
Who make me feel lonely
I go and make things tidy again
It's not like I'm hanging out our sheets for pleasure
Is this all I'm gonna be
For better, for better or worse?
Read your lines (Read 'em out, read 'em out)
Get outta his light (Outta sight, outta mind)
Hold him tight, it'll be alright
If you're by his side
Nothing's changing, no one's saved
Nothing's answered and no one's brave
Nothing's different and no one's right
No one's winning, there's no good fight

For better, for better or worse
Read your lines (Read 'em out, read 'em out)
Get outta his light (Outta sight, outta mind)
Hold him tight, it'll be alright
When you're by his side
Step back down (You're nothing now, nothing now)
It's their world now (Let me out, get me out)
Hold him tight, it'll be alright
In your fading light (Fading light)
Read your lines (Read 'em out, read 'em out)
Get outta his light (Outta sight, outta mind)
Hold him tight, it'll be alright
When you're by his side
Step back down (You're nothing now, nothing now)
'Cause it's their world now (Let me out, get me out)
Hold him tight, it'll be alright
In your fading light (Fading light)
