Better Off Alone

I found another picture of you on my phone
I could have swore to God I deleted those
I still see your face when I'm feeling low
You're like a ghost that haunts me when I'm alone

I still got the texts from you saying that
No matter what you would always be there for me
Can you explain what was running through your mind
When you decided to lie to me

I let you go
'Cause I knew I'd be
Better off alone
My heart then broke
When I knew that I had
Always been on my own
You made me feel safe
While straight up lying to my face
It took all I had to let you know
That I'd be better off alone

Why'd you wait so long to cut me down
Stringing me along with your hand stretched out
Turning everyone so I'd be shut out
Ever since it worked are you happy now?
I still got the texts from you saying that

No matter what you would always be there for me
Can you explain what was running through your mind
When you decided to lie to me

I let you go
'Cause I knew I'd be
Better off alone
My heart then broke
When I knew that I had
Always been on my own
You made me feel safe
While straight up lying to my face
It took all I had to let you know
That I'd be better off alone

Better off alone
We are better off alone
I knew I'd better off alone
Can you explain what was running through your mind
When you decided to lie to me

I let you go
'Cause I knew I'd be
Better off alone
My heart then broke
When I knew that I had
Always been on my own
You made me feel safe
While straight up lying to my face
It took all I had to let you know
That I'd be better off alone
