Better Off Alone - SayWeCanFly

My father gave me some advice

He told me «son, you won’t survive

Unless you earn your dimes

And take care of yourself»

My mother told me once or twice

To watch my back

Because my vice is coming swiftly

If I’m not careful they might kill me

Do you understand the heartbreak you have caused me

I try to learn my life in being scared

So if you love me

Why don’t you trust me

To do this on my own

And if you need me

Then why’d you leave me

I’m better off alone

Better off alone

My friends come few and far between

Since I’ve been living out my dream

How can I trust them

How can I trust them

These days of arm, this time of year

Exhumed by all my guilt and fear

About a future that will never even be here

But do you understand the moments you have cost me

By trying to run my life and being scared

If you love me

Why don’t you trust me

To do this on my own

And if you need me

Then why’d you leave me

I’m better off alone

Sunday’s coming

And I’m not running

Cause I’ve got all I need
