paroles de chanson Better Off - Booth feat. Hunter Jewell

I never had to walk through the fire on my own
I remember the days when I just waited for your call by the phone
And the years blink by and you realize all too soon
That I, I′m better off without you
So you better get gone
Yeah, the past can be tragic
When you're gone twelve years
Disappearing′s a habit
With a telephone
And a call that was never made
Guessing you could call me bitter
Or a version of a quitter
With the way that I've acquitted myself from all this litter
In my very own life that I chose to live
And in my head I'm like
"Life′s too short for a living mistake
You′ve gotta live with what you got as if it can't even wait
′Cause when the odds come home
You'll see your second chance never came"
And everybody′s like
"Don't come back unless you′ve suffered the change
Realize what you wanted ever since the first day
And if your choice ain't me
I think it's best we go our separate ways"
I never had to walk through the fire on my own
I remember the days when I just waited for your call by the phone
And the years blink by and you realize all too soon
That I, I′m better off without you
Am I better off? Or am I really lost?
Maybe that′s the reason our paths just never crossed
Either way, there was a pain you caused
And all along I could never pin it all your fault
Because all I ever wanted in my life was to be with you
But you were too busy playing father-son with your nephew
I wondered why this happened but I had no clue
Just remember these are the chances that you blew
So you never knew like
I hate you when you're gone
But I love you when you′re here
This crazy self-abuse intoxicates my mind with endless fear
Like, "Daddy's on his way, in fact he′s almost here!"
Psych
"Come over anytime!"
But only once a year, right?
You pick up the phone less than you pick up a pipe
Drink yourself into a coma to excuse for yourself
While I'm tucked in bed asking
"Where′s my dad? He's always gone"
They whisper softly that I'm better off
I never had to walk through the fire on my own
I remember the days when I just waited for your call by the phone
And the years blink by and you realize all too soon
That I, I′m better off without you
I never had to walk through the fire on my own
I remember the days when I just waited for your call by the phone
And the years blink by and you realize all too soon
That I, I′m better off without you
