CHORUS: If they dragged along and brought you down Turned your smiles into frowns Left you dying on the ground Never even turned around Leave them...Just leave them
If they broke your heart and broke you down Hated when you're not around Picked you up then brought you down Gave you air then made you drown Leave them...Just leave them
(Cause I'm better off alone anyway)
Verse 1: I feel better off alone at home, I don't even need a phone Been stabbed in the back so many times, I don't think I have a backbone Been co-dependent my whole life now I only wanna be alone What the hell is a friend if they only want you to always be under their throne Man I thought we were a team, but honesty is what we lacked Love ain't a charity, I expect the same thing back
So I'm packing my bags and I'm ready to go I don't know what I want but it's out on the road And I'm taking these pieces that all of you broke And the day that I make it I'm leaving you broke
Cuz I'm tired of proving myself, and I'm tired of looking for help Hard to trust anybody else when they pack you on top of their shelf
I'm not what you want me to be, but everything I want you to see I'm setting all of it free, I've pack up my bags and I'm ready to leave
CHORUS: If they dragged along and brought you down Turned your smiles into frowns Left you dying on the ground Never even turned around Leave them...Just leave them
If they broke your heart and broke you down Hated when you're not around Picked you up then brought you down Gave you air then made you drown Leave them...Just leave them
(Cause I'm better off alone anyway)
Verse 2: Hard to find happiness when the happy things hurt you most I'm trapped inside my mind and at times I don't know where to go I'm still trying to find my way, every second of the day And it hurts to hear me say that I could never let you stay
So I'm turning my back cuz enough with you all Count on me last and you left me to fall Stuck out my hand you're the one that I called Now to me you mean nothing at all So pack up your share, take all of your things Your presence, your clothes, and all of your rings Leave me alone and forget everything It really means, nothing to me
Putting it all in the past and it sucks we could never make it last, you said You'd piece my heart back together yet I, found it in the trash But I guess it was never really You and I, all your eyes are, full of lies I'm not surprised you hooked up with a guy the same night that we said goodbye Better off alone at home, don't you ever call my phone Nothing left inside of me, there's someone that I won't condone
I'm not what you want me to be, but everything I want you to see I'm setting all of it free, I've pack up my bags and I'm ready to leave
CHORUS: If they dragged along and brought you down Turned your smiles into frowns Left you dying on the ground Never even turned around Leave them...Just leave them
If they broke your heart and broke you down Hated when you're not around Picked you up then brought you down Gave you air then made you drown Leave them...Just leave them
(Cause I'm better off alone anyway)x4
Hard to find happiness when the happy things hurt you most Keep your head up smile, you have a long road I'm not saying toss the luggage or keep them real close But to get where you wanna go, you gotta let them go
