[Verse 1]
Woke up to a house gone still
No cold wars, no bitter pills
No broken glass, no shouting match
No digging graves just to relive the past
Every wall got scars to show
From all the storms that used to grow
But now that weight is off my chest
And for the first time, I can rest
Truck rolls out, I’m wide awake
No fake love left for me to chase
Cut that rope, let that anchor fall
Ain’t got nobody to answer for at all
[Pre-Chorus]
That silence used to cut so deep
Now it feels like something I can keep
[Chorus]
I’m better off alone
No chains wrapped around my soul
No late-night fights, no slamming doors
No bleeding out across that floor
I’m better off this way
No more trapped in yesterday
That love turned cold, turned hard as stone
And now I’m better off alone
[Verse 2]
You left your mark like carved-in pain
Like thunder trapped inside my veins
Every word still echoes back
Like a loaded gun with a heavy crack
But I ain’t folding, I ain’t weak
Found my voice when I couldn’t speak
Built these walls from all that hurt
Turned my pain into my worth
No more begging, no more blame
No more carrying all that shame
You dug me low, but I climbed out
Now I know what I’m about
[Build]
Hear that wind howl through the black
Like old ghosts trying to pull me back
But that dead weight don’t own me now
Buried deep, I won’t bow down
[Drop Chorus]
Better off alone, hear me loud
No more drowning in that crowd
No more pressure, no more lies
No more tears in bloodshot eyes
Better off alone, standing tall
Built my peace from watching it fall
Everything we had is gone
And I’m stronger being alone
[Verse 3]
Long roads stretch under midnight skies
A thousand truths in a thousand lies
I gave my all, got half in return
Now all that’s left is watch it burn
Heart went numb, but I stayed alive
Had to lose you just to survive
Some lessons hit like a loaded round
Knock you flat but don’t keep you down
Now my hands are steady, mind is clear
No more poison whispering here
That chapter closed, that page is torn
And out that wreck, I was reborn
[Bridge]
Cold steel heart, blacked-out veins
Still standing in the pouring rain
Thought your love would be my grave
Turns out I was built to be saved
All that hell, all that pain
Made me who I am today
If losing you was what it cost
Then maybe I was never lost
[Final Chorus]
I’m better off alone
No chains wrapped around my bones
No more chaos in my bed
No more demons in my head
I’m better off this way
No more trapped in yesterday
That love is dead, that wound is sewn
Yeah, I’m better off alone
[Outro]
So let the night keep calling out
Let the dark keep hanging round
I found my peace inside the storm
And in that wreck, I found my home
No more stress, no more pain
No more standing in that rain
Lost your love but found my soul
Yeah… I’m better off alone
