Better Alone

My heart drops dead every time

that I see her

run upstairs so I can get

the picture clearer

walking past by my room

in the early afternoon

Long dark hair

in an oversized sweater

know you don’t care but

I can pretend that you do

in the early afternoon

Oh maybe one day suddenly

you’ll look up and notice me

up there

but I’m too scared

Maybe I’m better alone

(alone alone)

I say I’ll get better I won’t

Maybe I’m better alone

I woke up in the morning

talked myself up

got the courage

then I waited in my room

right before the afternoon

I saw you take the corner

I was opening the door

when I saw two

it wasn’t only you

Maybe I’m better alone

(alone alone)

I say I’ll get better I won’t

Maybe i’m better alone

Just the way that it's always been

I'll be there for myself

Cause I have to let you go

I'm better off alone

Maybe I'm better alone

Imagine if it went another way

Imagine if I got the chance to say

that all this time

i’ve waited for you here

Imagine if it went another way

Imagine if I got the chance to say

that all this time

I’ve waited for you

But maybe I'm better alone

(alone alone)

I say I’ll get better I won’t

Maybe I'm better alone

Just the way that it's always been

I'll be there for myself

Cause I have to let you go

I'm better off alone

Maybe I'm better alone
