"Better Off" lyrics

All is but quiet in this room
Be careful what you say now
Vague mirrors staring back at you
It's not what you thought
Question everything that's said
I don't know if I'll ever hear the truth again
But I'm breaking on all ends
Stuck in an optical illusion

Is there nowhere left to turn
Our hate is caught in the soil and sea
What if we could learn to love
Would we be better off
Could we be better off

I see the fire's on the move
But you can't stop a free-fall
I lit the match just for you
It's not what you thought

Question everything that's done
I don't know if I'll ever see the hope again
So count your blessings and count your time
'Cause it's an optical illusion

Is there nowhere left to turn
Our hate is caught in the soil and sea
What if we could learn to love
Tell me, would we be better off
Could we be better off

Does it even make a difference
A simple conversation is rendered useless
Until we step back and listen
We won't understand till all is quiet
Till all is quiet in this room

Is there nowhere left to turn
Our hate is caught in the soil and sea
What if we could learn to love
Tell me, would we be better off
