I never knew perfection till
I heard you speak, and now it kills me
Just to hear you say the simple things
Now waking up is hard to do
And sleeping's impossible, too
Everything is reminding me of you
What can I do?It's not right, not okay
Say the word that you say
Maybe we're better off this way
I'm not fine, I'm in pain
It's harder everyday
Maybe we're better off this way
It's better that we breakA fool to let you slip away
I chase you just to hear you say
You're scared and that you think that I'm insaneThe city looks so nice from here
Pity, I can't see it clearly
While you're standing there, it disappears
It disappearsIt's not right, not okay
Say the word that you say
Maybe we're better off this way
I'm not fine, I'm in pain
It's harder everyday
Maybe we're better off this way
It's better that we breakSaw you sitting all alone
You're fragile, and you're cold
But that's all right
Life these days is getting rough
They've knocked you down and beat you up
But it's just a roller coaster anyway, yeahIt's not right, not okay
Say the word that you say
Maybe we're better off this way
I'm not fine, I'm in pain
It's harder everyday
Maybe we're better off this way
It's better that we breakI'm not fine, not okay
Say the word that you say
Maybe we're better off this wayI'm not fine, and I'm in pain
It's harder everyday
Maybe we're better off this way
It's better that we break, baby
