Lyrics
Better Off
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Cigarettes, ashes spent, the ships sailing.
The biggest bride left without a fix on me.
The storm is coming. Raise your dead.
Walk on waters.
I know where you live.
And I know now that you are nothing.
Armed with looks that feel filthy to me.
The biggest bribe that I ever took was
The dirt off your back when you gave me your shirt.
Who are you now? Who are you?
Who are you now?!
Truth, like rain, don't give a fuck who it falls on!
I can see it now in face of flaws that you put on.
Clear mind, clean hands.
I know its wrong.
You're better off not knowing. Its better, better left and unsaid.
You can keep me down, I'll tell em' I'm not worried.
Cause' I'm breathing now, so tell me loud, who are you?
Who are you now?
Fill me up, it feels filthy to me.
Taste that that tongue, know your history. Its all wrong.
You're better off not knowing. Its better, better left and said.
You can keep me down, I'll tell em' I'm not worried.
Cause' I'm breathing now, so tell me loud, who are you?
Who are you now?
You're better off not knowing.
Its better, better left and unsaid.
You can keep me down, I'll tell em' I'm not worried.
Cause' I'm breathing now, so tell me loud, who are you?
Who are you now?
