"Better Off" lyrics

"Better Off"

Breaking the static, a life automatic
Everyone mad about you
Look like a dirty old bruise, face like a faded tattoo

Life imitated, it's only faded
Tired of waiting on you
What did you want me to do, sit here and dream about

Oh no, oh no, oh no!

You know you're better off you bastard, bastard, bastard
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
You know I'm better off you bastard, bastard, bastard
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

Now that you're sane and the picture you painted
Don't really look much like you
Little more long in the tooth, what do you know about truth?
Is it there and it's just interfering, life isn't fair but I knew
What if I'm haunted by you, every time that I

Oh no, oh no, oh no!

You know you're better off you bastard, bastard, bastard
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
You know we're better off you bastard, bastard, bastard
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

You are my favourite disaster
Finally time to clear the air

Just don't forget to breathe
Please don't forget to breathe
Everyone's better off this way

So take it away
Take it away
Take it away

You know you're better off you bastard, bastard, bastard
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
You know we're better off you bastard, bastard, bastard
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

Just don't forget to breathe
Please don't forget to breathe
Everyone's better off this way

So take it away
Take it away
Take it away

Go!
