"Better Than Us" lyrics

The leaves are piling up
The trees are getting ugly
And fall is gonna suck
Here without anyone
It's been a couple months
Since you said you don't love me
I stopped doing the drugs
That helped me fall asleep

So now I close my eyes
But don't get a wink of rest
Laying on your side of the bed
That I always liked better

'Cause either way you're still gone
Sitting without me at some little bar
Drinking alone until the lights come on
How is that better than whatever we lost?
Spending your nights fucked up
Floating with girls you have to sneak into clubs
That only hang out with you because you've got drugs
I don't understand how this is better
I don't understand how this is better than love

I guess I lost my touch
Stopped holding your attention
It's weird 'cause everyone
Tells me I'm so interesting
When you said we were done
I learned you had no empathy
'Cause you still didn't budge
When I was crying at your feet

So now I close my eyes
But don't get a wink of rest
Laying on your side of the bed
That I always liked better

'Cause either way you're still gone
Sitting without me at some little bar
Drinking alone until the lights come on
How is that better than whatever we lost?

Spending your nights fucked up
Floating with girls you have to sneak into clubs
That only hang out with you because you've got drugs
I don't understand how this is better than ours

And I still don't know why
You just sort of up and left
I've got a few hunches
But now I guess they don't really matter
