Better Than Alone

I'd one of those bad days
Yeah, it left me a scar
One of those where the sun don't shine like she used to
I'd one of those bad dreams
Yeah, I woke up in a sweat (sweat)
And I rode into nothing or into no one
So lay me down with a ghost
'Cuz anything's better than alone
And how I do say what's over
Tell me how do I live on my own
Woke up in a church
Some guy feeling in on life
I said, "Hey"
"We'll be bored if it's all that simple"
See I'd marry the search
Wedding bells if the search had a soul
But today, I know that it's not that simple
So lay me down with a ghost
'Cuz anything's better than alone
And how I do say what's over
Tell me how do I live on my own
A question for you:
Did you really believe in me or was I
Just a blanket for you to hold on to?
See, I'm all outta words
Should I call it a night?
One of those where the moon don't shine like she used to
So lay me down with a ghost
Lay me down with a ghost
[X2]
So lay me down with a ghost
'Cuz anything's better than alone
And how I do say what's over
Tell me how do I live on my own
When anything's better than alone
Oh, anything's better than alone
Anything's better than alone
Oh, anything's better than alone
