I think I was better off before this all began
So clearly I can see lately that you don't know who I am
Everybody tried to tell me something that I never could believe
Staring back it seemed so much different than it did in front of me

But I know there's no good in looking back on yesterday
And wondering what could have happened then

You think you can give me what I want
You say
(You say)
You say
I think I'm better off alone
These days
(These days)
These days

Why should I put my trust in something that I never could believe
So one day you can find something better
Just to pack your things and leave
Loneliness is a friend for the moment but you won't walk out on me

But I know there's no good in looking back on yesterday
And wondering what could have happened then

You think you can give me what I want
You say
(You say)
You say
I think I'm better off alone
These days
(These days)
These days

I'm tired and I'm sick of waiting, maybe I'll die alone
'Cause I can't take another damn day of waiting here for you
To come home to me
Yeah, yeah, baby, baby please tell me why

You think you can give me what I want
You say
(You say)
You say
I think I'm better off alone
These days
(These days)
These days

You think you can give me what I want
You say
(You say)
You say
I think I'm better off alone
These days
(These days)
These days
