Lyrics

I’ve heard it said the worst wounds are the ones that don’t bleed
And time can never heal your pride
Is it worth it for me to pack up and leave?
Give up on this love and fight the tide
‘Cause I hear you creeping in late at night
And I know you know that that shit ain’t right
And I’m tired of pretending that one day, you ‘gon change
So as you wander, I wonder and ponder
Am I better off
Better off without you?
It’s true we had us a good thing, but good things can’t last
When you’ve got one foot outside the door
If you’d rather be with someone else, I pray you go fast
‘Cause I can’t take this anymore
Better a bitter truth than a sweet lie
I must have told you a thousand times
I don’t want a half love; rather give it back, love
So as you wander, I wonder and ponder
Am I better off
Better off without you?
I hear lightning loves a scarred tree
Is that why love keeps hurting me?
I just can’t understand how I’m here again
Secrets punish those who keep them
But I’m the one whose heart’s still bleeding
And I can’t stay if it’s at my own expense
So as you wander, I wonder and ponder
Am I better off
Better off without you?
