Time and time again
Been playing like a broken record
Will it get better?
Wanting to forgive
But constantly losing your temper
Do you remember
The days you spent waiting for answers
Too close to the problem
You can't see it
I'm not convinced his heart is in it
Too often discarded and forgotten
I'm not convinced his heart is in it
I'm not convinced
When you call me all alone
'Cause he didn't treat you right, should've known
Yeah, I know you got that look on your face
No, don't tell me that it's gotta be this way
When you call me, you should know
You'll be better off on your own
Better off on your own
Time and time again
Been picking up the broken pieces
To find the reason
Baby, don't pretend
We're going in a new direction
You feed the tension
To live in a shell like you do
To carry the weight like it's something to prove
But I'm seeing this straight through
The mirror beside you don't lie like you do
The mirror beside you don't lie like you do
Don't lie like you do
When you call me all alone
'Cause he didn't treat you right, should've known
Yeah, I know you got that look on your face
No, don't tell me that it's gotta be this way
When you call me, you should know
You'll be better off on your own
And you're the only one
That holds the rope that ties the noose
That sets you loose
The rise before the fall
You give what only you can't take
Don't make the same mistake
When you call me all alone
'Cause he didn't treat you right, should've known
Oh yeah, you'd be better off
Oh yeah, you'd be better off
Oh yeah, you'd be better off
Better off alone
Better off alone
