in essence, this is simply a love song, it goes through all of the things that gregory misses about his partner(s).
[Verse 1]
I never thought I would be alone again
But I'm sitting in the dark and counting my friends
On the hands I used to hold you with
And what's the point in getting dressed
If I'm only gonna take my own clothes off
And go back to bed
In the room you used to hold me in?
[Chorus]
It's not about what you did, I can get over that
But I'm never gonna get over the way that you laughed
It still makes my skin scream
It's not about what you did, I can get over that
But I'm never gonna get over the shit that you said
It still makes my skin scream at me:
"You're better off lonely"
"You're better off lonely"
[Verse 2]
I never thought I would be a memory
But you're peeling all the posters off the walls
They're getting kinda empty
But maybe that's easier
Or maybe it's a little bit worse
Those marks remind you of me
Why can't you see you're better off lonely?
[Chorus]
It's not about what you did, I can get over that
But I'm never gonna get over the way that you laughed
It still makes my skin scream
It's not about what you did, I can get over that
But I'm never gonna get over the shit that you said
It still makes my skin scream at me:
"You're better off lonely"
"You're better off lonely"
[Outro]
You're better off lonely
It's not about what you did, I can get over that
But I'm never gonna get over the way that you laugh
(Better off lonely)
It still makes my skin scream
(You're better off lonely)
It's not about what you did, I can get over that
(You're better off lonely)
But I'm never gonna get over the shit that you said
It still makes my skin scream at me:
"You're better off lonely"
It's not about what you did, I can get over that
(Better off lonely)
But I'm never gonna get over the way that you laugh
(You're better off lonely)
It still makes my skin scream:
"You're better off lonely"
