Better Off

When I tried to shed the skin
And become someone else
I just slept so bent in the pain
I admired
Trading time away for free
And I can't get it back
I was set to stay beneath

'Cause knowing isn't everything

Just get out of my head
Can't take it all again
Neck deep in regret
Yeah, I'm better off
Get out of my head
Can't take it all again
Nothing to be said
Yeah, I'm better off
Basing my life
On what I align
Un-wasting my time
With my own design
Just get out of my head
Can't take it all again
Not down to pretend
That I'm better off

(Just get out of my head)
(Can't take it all again)
(Not down to pretend)
(That I'm better off)

I untied the rest to find
I had more than enough
To dispel the need for help
From anyone else
Yeah, I kept composed and slow
All for myself
I was pushed beyond belief

'Cause knowing isn't everything

Just get out of my head
Can't take it all again
Neck deep in regret
Yeah, I'm better off
Get out of my head
Can't take it all again
Nothing to be said
Yeah, I'm better off
Basing my life
On what I align
Un-wasting my time
With my own design
Just get out of my head
Can't take it all again
Not down to pretend
That I'm better off

(Yeah, I'm better off)
(I'm better off)
(Yeah, I'm better off)
(Yeah)
(Better, yeah, I'm better off)

And that phase can stay behind
As an error to resign
Now I'm fine to drift away
