Lyrics

Convinced me to love you, then you up and left me
Felt myself falling, you felt we weren't meant to be
You found me broken, battered and beaten
Wouldn't have loved you if I knew you were leaving
I wish I could say I was better off without you
But I can't let go and I'm living with this pain
Cuz since you left I can't stop thinking about you
And what might've been if only you had stayed
I wonder if it would be any easier
If I had the chance to forget everything
To go back to a time I didn't need ya
Before you showed me all I was missing
Was I better off before?
Selfless and patient and everything I'm not
So I let my guard down, I guess somehow I forgot
That words can come undone, and though you built me an escape
The walls started crumbling, the moment you walked away
I wish I could say I was better off without you
But I can't let go and I'm living with this pain
Cuz since you left I can't stop thinking about you
And what might've been if only you had stayed
I wonder if it would be any easier
If I had the chance to forget everything
To go back to a time I didn't need ya
Before you showed me all I was missing
Was I better off before?
Maybe it's me, yeah I should've known better, I ignored all the alarms
Maybe it's me, I should never have counted on you
Maybe it's me and I should've fought harder to resist all of your charms
Cuz I'm not sure it was worth it, would I take it back if I knew?
I wish I could say I was better off without you
Or that I hated you and you're the one to blame
But of all the things that you and I have gone through
The worst thing you did was love me the right way
I wonder if it would be any easier
If I had the chance to forget everything
To go back to a time I didn't need ya
Before you showed me all I was missing
I wonder if it would be any easier
If I had the chance to forget everything
To go back to a time I didn't need ya
Before you showed me all I was missing
Was I better off before?
