Better Off This Way Lyrics

I wonder if you'll notice
If they lock me up and throw away the key
Gotta be open minded
You've got a lot to learn in the ways of meYou've always got to say something
I'm none of your concern but you won't listen at all
You know I'd rather say nothing
And just be proud of myself, I'm tearing down these wallsWhen you fall
I'll be the only one who looks away
When you call
I'll be the first to tell you I can't stayIt's all over
I've found a better way
To help keep you from me
I'm better off this way
I'm better off this wayYou gotta keep this coming
Tell me like you know it but you don't know nothing, your call
We can settle this like gentlemen
Or meet me at the back to end it all inside againMy whole life's been waiting
Ever since I can remember

Been anxious awaiting your fall
And don't let me be a long while
Can't let go of my life till I know you're doneWhen you fall
I'll be the only one who looks away
When you call
I'll be the first to tell you I can't stayIt's all over
I've found a better way
To help keep you from me
I'm better off this way
I'm better off this wayYou want it, you've got it
You've always been such a waste of time
You want it, you've got it
A friend of yours is no friend of mineYou want it, you've got it
When will you act your age?
You want it, you've got it
You're the reason things have to change
You're the reason things have to changeWhen you fall
I'll be the only one who looks away
When you call
I'll be the first to tell you I can't stayIt's all over
I've found a better way
To help keep you from me
I'm better off this way
I'm better off this way
I'm better off this way
