Better on my own

Verse

Never gonna give my heart where it shouldn’t go

Felt it shattered me more than I wanted at all

I gave you everything I didn’t show

But what I wanted was never enough

Pre-Chorus

I trusted the warmth, I believed the lies

Held on even when it felt wrong

I’ve learned the truth the hard way in time

If the love is wrong, I’m better off on my own

Chorus

I’ve learned to stand alone

Even when the nights are long

I’ve learned the truth

The hard way, on my own

Love should feel safe

Not begging you to stay

If love only costs me

My peace and my voice

Then I’m better on my own

Verse

Never gonna let my heart beg again

For a place it doesn’t belong

I stayed too long, I bent, I bled

Trying to be enough for someone wrong

Pre-Chorus

I gave my all, I stayed too deep

Ignored every sign I’d known

I’ve learned some love only takes, not keeps

If the love is wrong, I’m better off on my own

Chorus

I’ve learned to stand alone

Even when the nights are long

I’ve learned the truth

The hard way, on my own

Love should feel safe

Not begging you to stay

If love only costs me

My peace and my voice

Then I’m better on my own

Better on my own

Bridge

Alone is quiet, but at least it’s honest

No pretending, like no control

I’d rather heal in the silence

Than break myself to be whole

Final Chorus

I’ve learned to stand alone

Even when the nights are long

I’ve learned the truth

The hard way, on my own

Love should feel safe

Not begging you to stay

If love only costs me

My peace and my voice

Then I’m better on my own

Then i'm better on my own
