Better Off
By TornPaperDoll
I never said i loved him
But we both knew it was there
Maybe he heard "love" in the words i said
Or could he read it through my stare?
I tried to hide it
But my efforts were so useless then
And the words you said still echo
"Better off just friends"
No, i'd be better off without my broken heart
Or these tears that i have cried
And the things that you have put me through
And yet i still stayed by your side
I'd have been better off without the phone calls
When you said that you missed me so
And the promises you made to me
That wherever i went, you'd go
I'd be better off with out this emptyness
Or the love i felt for so long
And the scared feeling that the choice you make
Might be what is wrong
Yes, i know for a fact
I'd be better off without a few
But if there's one thing i can't...
I could never be better without you.
