"Better Off" lyrics
"Better Off"
Eyes open, slow motion
Out of bed no kiss good morning
Wheels rolling down the driveway
Without a ring hand waving my way
It's another shade of gray
Another rainy day in paradise
No flowers on the counter
Just footsteps in and out of
These hallways and doorframes
You stumble through in the midnight hours
While I'm on my knees and praying
Lord, is there anything worth saving
I know we made a promise
In sickness and in health
But I think God would rather watch us
Walk away than walk through hell
'Cause we did all our damage
Before death could do us part
For worse or for better off
Cold shoulder, cold arms
Barely beating broken hearts
Can't try to hold on
To a flame dying in the dark
We already know we're gone
We don't have to say goodbye
It's too late, can't say we didn't try
I know we made a promise
In sickness and in health
But I think God would rather watch us
Walk away than walk through hell
'Cause we did all our damage
Before death could do us part
For worse or for better off
Too young to know to have to hold
Can turn into two left hands letting go
I know we made a promise
In sickness and in health
But I think God would rather watch us
Walk away than walk through hell
We did all our damage
Before death could do us part
For worse or for better off
For worse or for better off

Got an emerald cut she loves that...

Ashley Cooke - "running back" Running back, number forty-nine
You had me from the sidelines
And in the back of a Pontiac
Something 'bout that first time
That puts your walls up when it don't work out
You're still holding on to it...
Lily Rose - "Better Than That" Fool me once and I'll say it's your fault
Fool me twice, I'll admit that it's not
Three times, four times, how many more times
Baby, 'til we're done with this war?
And we're both bad at being alone...
Jana Kramer - "Let It Burn" Are we really here again
Every word you said
Suddenly sounds so familiar
Played your part, you played it well
And like a fool I feel
For nothin' more than
Smoke and mirrors
I had a dream that you...
